for and install the Windows driver for the device.

.. important::
Most devices connect to the Windows Machine for Windows IoT automatically through Windows
Plug-N-Play (PnP). However, if Windows does not automatically recognize the device after
connecting, then the administrator may need to install the corresponding drivers manually.

Devices automatically recognized:

- Regular ink/toner based printers
- Receipt printers (Epson/Star)
- Barcode scanners
- Measurement devices (although some configuration of the measurement device settings is
required) See this documentation: :doc:`../devices/measurement_tool`

Devices not automatically recognized (requires manual driver download):

- Label printers (Zebra)
- Scales

Reference the manufacturer's website for the equipment in question. Then, download the drivers
and install them on the Windows machine. Reconnect the device in question and Windows will find
the device.

Following connecting devices to the computer, refresh the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box
homepage and verify the device is seen. If not, reload the handlers through the :abbr:`IoT (Internet
of Things)` box homepage.
