Tip 1: use an AirPrint printer
Apple AirPrint is the easiest way to print from your Apple Mac. If you have a printer that supports AirPrint, you can quickly and easily print files without extra programs or accessories. AirPrint doesn't just work with your Apple Mac, but also with your iPhone and iPad. That way, you can quickly print documents and photos without a hassle with cables or confusing programs.
Tip 2: use a WiFi printer
With a WiFi printer, you can wirelessly print documents and photos. Connect your Mac and the printer with the same WiFi network for this. Open the document you want to print and select the printer from the list. Your Mac sends the document wirelessly to your printer. Most modern printers support wireless printing.

Do you have a printer that can't print wirelessly? Or aren't you able to connect to your printer? You can print your files via a USB cable. If your Mac doesn't have USB-A ports, you can connect the printer using a cable converter. You can then print your files and photos as usual.
