To do this, select the Manufacturer of the device you are installing and the printer model, then click “Next“.

You may be asked which driver to use, if so, use the driver that is currently installed. Click “Next”
You will be asked to name the print, then if you would like to share it. Please do not share your printer.
You should then be asked if you would like to make this the default printer that you print to.
