# Printing 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.

{% hint style="info" %}
**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.
{% endhint %}

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.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.parallels.com/landing/pdfm-ug/parallels-desktop-for-mac-27-users-guide/use-windows-on-your-mac/printing-from-windows.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
