Which one of the following would not be used to install a printer?
- A.
  
  Devices and Printers - Add a network Printer
- B.
  
  Attach printer to USB port
- C.
  
  Devices and Printers - Add a local printer
- D.
  
  Check screen resolution
Correct Answer
D. Check screen resolution

Explanation
The option "Check screen resolution" would not be used to install a printer because screen resolution is related to the display settings of a computer monitor and has no direct connection to printer installation. To install a printer, one would typically use options such as "Devices and Printers - Add a network Printer" to add a printer connected to a network, "Attach printer to USB port" to connect a printer via USB, or "Devices and Printers - Add a local printer" to install a printer connected directly to the computer.

This allows you to temporarily halt the printing of a document and resume it later without losing any progress.
