Hardly any device causes as much trouble at home as the printer. Sometimes it simply refuses to connect to the WiFi, sometimes it prints only half pages, sometimes the phone just cannot find it. This is exactly where we help you. As a home tech service in the Nordstemmen, Sarstedt and Hildesheim area, we come to you in person, set up printer and scanner cleanly, connect all your devices and explain calmly how you can print and scan in future. With us you always speak with the same person, without a queue and in normal, understandable language. Why a printer suddenly goes offline is explained in detail in our guide on setting up a printer over Wi-Fi - and because the cause is often the network, our article on slow Wi-Fi is worth reading too.
What We Set Up Around Your Printer
A printer should simply work, without you needing a degree for it. To make sure it does, we handle the complete setup: from unpacking and connecting through linking it to your devices to scanning. In the end you press print and the sheet comes out, exactly as it should. If that is on your list, we can help under home office setup.
Setting Up WiFi Printing
We connect your printer to the WiFi so you can print from any room, entirely without a cable running across the home.
Installing Drivers
We install the right software and drivers so your computer recognizes the printer correctly and all functions are usable.
Connecting to PC and Mac
Whether a Windows computer or an Apple Mac: we set up the printer on your device and ensure printing works reliably.
With Phone and Tablet
So you can also print photos and tickets directly from your smartphone or tablet, we set up wireless printing on your mobile devices.
Explaining Scanning
We set up scanning and show you how to scan documents, save them as PDF and send them by email if needed.
Fixing Problems
Paper jams, print jobs that get stuck or a printer that is not found: we find the cause and get everything running again.
Why Printers So Often Cause Problems
A Printer Is a Whole Chain of Connections
A modern printer is really a small computer that is supposed to connect to the WiFi, to your PC, to the phone and sometimes even to an online account. If just one link sticks, the whole chain does not work. Drivers age, WiFi passwords change, an update cuts the connection. We know these stumbling blocks and set up every link so it works together reliably. A stable WiFi is half the battle here.
- WiFi router, PC, Mac, phone and tablet cleanly connected
- Up-to-date drivers for all functions
- One contact for the whole chain
During our home visits we repeatedly find that the setup guide in the box is either incomprehensible or assumes steps that an ordinary person simply cannot know. We take over this part for you and set up the printer so it works reliably with all your devices. With tech help in Nordstemmen we come to your home as well.
A Tip in Advance
Your Appointment Step by Step
You do not need to prepare anything or bring any technical knowledge. Here we explain step by step how an appointment at your home works. Our goal is for you to be able to print and scan without frustration after the visit.
A Short Phone Call
You describe which printer it is and what is not working. We arrange a suitable appointment and tell you the price clearly in advance.
Connecting and Checking
On site we unpack the printer if needed, set it up, connect it and check the connection to your WiFi.
Connecting to Your Devices
We install the drivers, set up printing on PC, Mac, phone and tablet and test with a sample page that everything works.
Setting Up Scanning
If your device can also scan, we set up this function and show you how to scan documents and save them.
Practicing Together
Finally, we practice printing and scanning together until you feel confident. On request we leave a simple guide.

What Does Printer Setup Cost?
At Technik daheim you always know where you stand beforehand. We bill the setup of your printer via the transparent fixed rate of 79 €. This includes an appointment of up to 60 minutes, and in that time a printer can be fully set up and connected to your devices in the vast majority of cases. If it should take longer, for example because several computers and phones are connected or a network printer is configured, we bill every additional hour at 69 €. Travel in the local area within 10 km of Nordstemmen is always included, beyond that we charge 0.50 € per kilometer. All prices include VAT.

Printing from Phone and Tablet
Many people today want to print not only from the computer but also a photo, a train ticket or a scanned invoice directly from the smartphone onto paper. That is usually no problem once the printer is set up correctly. We connect your printer to your phone and tablet so you can print with just a few taps, explain exactly which steps are needed and practice them with you. Our offer under computer courses at home fits well alongside.
This is particularly practical in families: the children print homework, the parents the school letter and the grandparents their favorite recipe, all from their own device. We make sure this works reliably on all devices and, on request, also set it up so everyone in the household can print without chaos in the queue.
Scanning Made Easy
From Paper to a Sent PDF
Many printers can also scan, that is, turn paper documents into digital ones. That is enormously practical, for example to save an invoice, a contract or a letter as a file and send it by email. Yet this very function often goes unused because no one has explained how it works. We set up scanning and show you step by step how to scan a document, save it as a PDF and send it.
- Scan target and PDF format set up for you
- Sending by email practiced together
- On request an illustrated guide
Neutral Advice on Ink and Paper
Especially Patient for Seniors
When the printer goes on strike, the frustration is often great, especially if you do not feel comfortable with technology. With us there is no time pressure and no silly questions. We take the time to explain everything as often as you need and set up your printer so operation is as simple as possible. On request we leave an illustrated guide in large print. You can read more about how we support older people under Tech for Seniors.
In our experience, a large share of supposed printer defects are not a defect at all but merely a missing or lost connection (project experience). So before you think about a new printer, it is almost always worth a check. Often the device prints perfectly again after a brief reconfiguration, and you save yourself a new purchase. What else we offer is listed under the Windows 11 upgrade.
