Print from Windows

By default, Windows is set to use the same printer that you use with macOS. Simply print from a Windows application the way you normally would.

Note: due to changes in macOS Sonoma 14, printing functionality in Parallels Desktop 19 working on Sonoma host Macs will undergo changes that will be reflected in this guide once Sonoma is officially released.

You can also set Windows to use a different printer. There are a few ways to set up printing in Windows:

Share any of the printers connected to your Mac.
Connect to a network printer.
Connect a USB printer directly to Windows.
