wirelessly or usb?
usually you have to run the printer driver installation software first (which might be found on a cd, or from the company's website), then go into print and fax -under system preferences, click on the plus sign, add the printer, choose the model, then just plug it in to the usb socket on the machine. Printer cables are a-b cables. the square shaped end usually goes into the printer, while the other flatter end goes into the usb socket. After that, turn on the printer, wait for it to warm up, and then you should be ready to print something
as for wirelessly, I can't say right now, apart from reading the instructions, but the above stuff should work fine for usb
