Installing a printer or other
peripheral device
Your notebook has one or more of the following ports:
Universal Serial Bus (USB), IEEE 1394, HDMI (digital audio/video)
and eSATA (external SATA hard drive). You use these ports to
connect peripheral devices such as printers, scanners, and
digital cameras to your notebook.
USB ports support plug-and-play and hot swapping, which
means that your notebook will usually recognize such a device
whenever you plug it into the appropriate port. When you use
a USB device for the first time, your notebook will prompt you
to install any software the device needs. After doing this, you
can disconnect and reconnect the device at any time.
Important
If the remove hardware icon does not appear on the taskbar, click
the show hidden icons button.
Important
Before you install a printer, scanner, or other peripheral device, see the
device documentation and installation instructions.
