Setting Up a Printer in a Virtual Machine

There are three basic ways to set up printing in a virtual machine. You can:

• Share any of the printers connected to your Mac computer via a printer port of your virtual machine.
• Set up a printer via Apple's Bonjour Printer wizard.

  Note: Apple's Bonjour printer is available in Windows guest OSs only.

• Use a network printer.

You can also connect a USB printer directly to your virtual machine. In this case, the printer will not be available to Mac OS X. For detailed information see Connecting USB Devices to a Virtual Machine .
