Practical help, clearly explained

How we can help.

01

Connect the printer

Set up a compatible printer or scanner and connect it to your computer, phone or home Wi-Fi.

02

Work through the problem

Investigate connection, software, print queue and ordinary configuration issues; discuss repair or replacement if the hardware is faulty.

03

Show you how to use it

Test printing or scanning together and explain the steps for the devices you use.

Before we talk

What to have ready.

Share what you know. You do not need to diagnose the problem yourself.

  • Printer make and model, power lead and any cables.
  • A device you want to print or scan from.
  • Ink or toner and paper for a test.

Questions, answered

The details before you decide.

Have a question? Ask Wayrest.

Can you help with a wireless printer?

Yes, we can check the Wi-Fi connection and help connect compatible devices.

Do you repair printer hardware?

We can discuss the fault and whether a specialist repair or replacement makes sense. Parts or hardware repair would be separately agreed.

Can you set up more than one device?

We can discuss the devices and include them in the agreed visit.
