3. Open the Document or File to Print

  1. Open the application that supports the file (e.g., Word for documents, Photos for pictures).
  2. Open the file you want to print.

4. Print

  1. Press Ctrl + P, or go to the menu and select File > Print.
  2. In the Print dialog box:
    • Select your printer.
