How to use AirPrint at Home on a MacBook
Most popular printers are AirPrint-enabled so you can print wirelessly to them using your Mac. AirPrint is built into most popular printer models; for a list of printers that support AirPrint, see the Apple Support article About AirPrint.

Make sure your printer is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your Mac. See the setup information that came with your printer.
- Open System Preferences, and select Printers & Scanners (Print & Scan) on your Mac.
- Select + to display the printer list.
- Select the printer's name from the list if there is more than one printer.
- Select Secure AirPrint or AirPrint from Use.
- Select Add.
- With a document open on your Mac, choose File > Print in the app you’re using.
Click the Printer menu, then choose your AirPrint printer.
Select the other print options you want and click Print.
If you don’t want to print wirelessly, you may be able to connect your AirPrint printer to a USB port or Ethernet port on your Mac. Check the documentation that came with your printer to see if it has one of these ports.
