Printer Setup Canberra – FAQs
How much does printer setup cost in Canberra?
Printer and scanner setup starts from $99 for basic installation. This includes unboxing (if new), driver installation, connecting to your computer or WiFi network, and testing. More complex setups like office network printers with multiple users may cost more depending on your specific needs. We provide a quote before starting work, and with our “No Fix, No Fee” guarantee, you only pay if we get your printer working properly.
How do I connect my printer to WiFi?
Connecting a printer to WiFi involves accessing your printer’s wireless settings (usually through the control panel), selecting your WiFi network, and entering your password. Then you need to install the correct drivers on your computer. This can be tricky because every printer brand has different steps. If you’re struggling, we can do it for you quickly and ensure all your devices can print wirelessly.
Why does my printer say offline when it’s turned on?
A printer showing “offline” is one of the most common issues we fix. It’s usually caused by connection problems between your computer and printer – either WiFi disconnection, IP address changes, driver issues, or the printer being set as “offline” in Windows settings. Sometimes a simple restart fixes it, but often it requires reconfiguring the connection. Our technicians can diagnose and fix offline printer issues quickly.
Can you setup my HP/Canon/Epson/Brother printer?
Yes! We setup all major printer brands, including HP, Canon, Epson, Brother, Samsung, Xerox, Lexmark, Kyocera, and more. Whether it’s a basic inkjet, laser printer, photo printer, or multi-function device with printing, scanning, copying, and faxing, we can set it up. Each brand has different setup procedures, but our technicians are experienced with all of them.
How do I print from my iPhone or Android phone?
To print from a smartphone, your printer needs to support wireless printing and be on the same WiFi network. iPhones use AirPrint, and Android phones use various methods depending on your printer brand (HP Smart, Canon PRINT, Epson iPrint, etc.). We can setup mobile printing for you, install the right apps on your phone, and show you how to print photos and documents from any app.
My scanner isn’t working, can you fix it?
Yes! Scanner issues are common, especially on multi-function printers where printing works but scanning doesn’t. This is usually a software or driver issue. We can install the correct scanning software, configure scan-to-computer, scan-to-email, or scan-to-cloud options, and ensure your scanner works with your preferred applications.
Can you setup a printer for my whole office?
Absolutely! We specialise in office printer setups where multiple people need to print to the same device. We configure network printing, set up print sharing on your server or router, install drivers on all workstations, and configure scanning features like scan-to-email. We also setup user permissions if needed and can integrate with your existing IT infrastructure.
How long does printer setup take?
Most home printer setups take 30-60 minutes. This includes unboxing, assembly, connection to WiFi or computer, driver installation, and testing. More complex setups like office network printers with multiple computers might take 1-2 hours. We offer same-day service so you can start printing the same day you call.
Do you service my area in Canberra?
Yes! We service all Canberra suburbs, including Belconnen, Gungahlin, Woden, Tuggeranong, Braddon, Fyshwick, Civic, Kingston, Manuka, and all surrounding areas in the ACT, including Queanbeyan. We come to your home, office, school, or business – wherever you need us!
What if you can’t fix my printer problem?
We have a “No Fix, No Fee” guarantee. If we can’t resolve your printer issue, you don’t pay for technician fees. We’ll honestly tell you if your printer needs to be replaced rather than repaired. We can also recommend and help setup a new printer if yours is beyond repair, ensuring you get the right printer for your needs.
