# How to configure printer in OMLx
|
||||
Turn your printer on and see if it is automatically configured. Pay attention to whether the right driver was installed.
|
||||
|
||||
If printer was auto configured and you have correct driver you are all set.
|
||||
|
||||
If it was not, turn off your printer.
|
||||
|
||||
Open *Printer Settings* aka `system-config-printer` and remove your printer.
|
||||
If the correct driver was not installed by default we will need to add a software package.
|
||||
|
||||
The next step is to determine what software to add for your printer.
|
||||
|
||||
In OpenMandriva Lx this is most likely to be a 'task-printing' package specific to your printer brand.
|
||||
The packages are:
|
||||
- task-printing-canon
|
||||
- task-printing-epson
|
||||
- task-printing-hp
|
||||
- task-printing-lexmark
|
||||
- task-printing-okidata
|
||||
- task-printing-misc
|
||||
|
||||
Install the package that matches your brand or the misc package if none do.
|
||||
|
||||
Example using okidata:
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ sudo dnf install task-printing-okidata
|
||||
```
|
||||
Now turn printer on again and it should then automatically configure itself (sometimes you might need to reboot for auto config to work).
