Whether you have just picked up a new HP LaserJet from Officeworks in Bourke Street or ordered a Canon inkjet online, getting a printer properly set up is more involved than most people expect. Drivers need installing, wireless connections need configuring, and if you are connecting to a shared office network, there are permissions and print queues to sort out as well.
At Geeks Melbourne, we take the frustration out of printer setup. Our technicians come to your home or office anywhere across Melbourne -- from Richmond and South Yarra to Footscray, Preston, and the outer suburbs -- and handle the entire process from start to finish. We work with every major printer brand including HP, Canon, Epson, Brother, Xerox, and Kyocera.
Our printer setup service covers:
We do not just plug it in and leave. We test print from every device you need, walk you through the basics, and make sure everything is working perfectly before we go.
From brand-new installations to fixing a printer that has stopped cooperating, here is what our Melbourne technicians handle.
Unbox, assemble, load ink or toner, install drivers, and connect to your computer or network. We set it up properly so it works first time, every time.
Connect your printer to WiFi so you can print from laptops, phones, and tablets anywhere in the house without running cables across the room.
Set up shared printing across your office network. Multiple computers, one printer -- with proper permissions, print queues, and default settings configured.
We source and install the correct, up-to-date drivers for your exact printer model on Windows, macOS, or Linux. No bloatware, no wrong versions.
Got a multifunction device? We configure scanning to your computer, email, cloud storage, and network folders -- not just the print side of things.
Offline errors, spooler crashes, paper jams, streaky prints, alignment issues -- we diagnose the root cause and fix it so it stays fixed.
Getting your printer set up with Geeks Melbourne is straightforward. No jargon, no runaround.

A Melbourne technician arrives at your home or office at the agreed time. Same-day appointments are available across all Melbourne suburbs.
We install, connect, and configure everything. Drivers, WiFi, scanning, print quality calibration -- the full setup from start to finish.
We test print from every device, show you how to use key features, and make sure you are completely happy before we leave.
We work with every major printer brand including HP, Canon, Epson, Brother, Xerox, Kyocera, Ricoh, Samsung, Lexmark, and OKI. Whether it is a home inkjet, a laser printer for the office, or a large-format plotter, our Melbourne technicians have the experience to set it up correctly.
Wireless is usually the better option for most households and small offices. It lets you print from any device without being tethered to the printer. USB is more reliable for high-volume or specialised printing where you need a rock-solid connection. We will assess your situation and recommend the best approach for your setup.
This is one of the most common printer issues we see across Melbourne. It is usually caused by a stale print spooler, a dropped WiFi connection, an incorrect default printer setting, or outdated drivers. We diagnose the specific cause and fix it permanently -- not just clear the queue and hope for the best.
Absolutely. If you have a multifunction printer (print, scan, copy), we configure the scanning function to work with your computer, email, cloud storage like Google Drive or OneDrive, and network folders. We set up scan shortcuts so you can scan with a single button press from the printer panel.
A standard home printer setup -- unboxing, driver install, WiFi connection, and test print -- typically takes 30 to 60 minutes. More complex setups like network printers for an office, multifunction scanning configuration, or troubleshooting existing issues may take 60 to 90 minutes. We always give you an estimate before we start.
Yes. We set up and troubleshoot printers on both macOS and Windows. Mac printer setup often has its own quirks -- AirPrint compatibility, driver availability, and CUPS configuration -- and we handle all of it. We also set up printing from iPhones and iPads via AirPrint.
