4. Click Add Device

Windows will automatically search the network for available printers. Most of the times this might fail due to drivers not being installed. Depending on the printer you are trying to connect, search the printer model and name on google to install the drivers. after they have been installed re-add the printer. Make sure you are on the same network as your printer.
