If that doesn't work, head to your printer manufacturer's website and download the drivers and installation tools for your printer.

Add a Wireless Printer

The steps to install a wireless printer may vary by manufacturer. In general, however, modern printers today will detect your network and automate the installation.
1. Use the printer's LCD panel to enter the wireless setup. On my Epson printer this is under Setup > Wireless LAN Settings.
2. Select your Wi-Fi network. You'll need to know your home network's SSID, which you can find by hovering your mouse over the Wi-Fi icon in the taskbar.
3. Enter your network password.
In some cases, you might need to temporarily connect your printer to your computer via USB to install software. But otherwise, that's it. You should find your printer automatically added in the Printers & scanners section under Settings > Devices.
If you run into trouble, make sure your printer is relatively close to your computer and not too far from your wireless router. If your printer has an Ethernet jack, you could also connect it directly to your router and manage it with a browser interface.

Add a Shared Printer

Windows' home networking feature called HomeGroup automatically shares printers and certain files with other computers on your home network. Here we'll set up a HomeGroup, if you don't already have one set up, and connect to the shared printer.

Set Up a Home Group

Skip this step if your home network already has a HomeGroup set up. If you're not sure, follow steps 1 and 2 below to check.
1. Right-click on the wireless icon in the taskbar and select "Open Network and Sharing Center".
network sharing center2. Click "Ready to create" next to HomeGroup. If a HomeGroup already exists on your network, it will say "Joined."
create homegroup3. Click the Create a homegroup button.
create homegroup24. Click Next.
5. Select what you want to be shared. Printers & Devices are shared by default.\
create homegroup36. Write down the HomeGroup password Windows creates for you. You'll need it for each computer you want to join the HomeGroup.
7. Click Finish.
