A desktop administrator just connected a printer to a workstation, but the workstation does not recognize the printer. Which of the following does the workstation MOST likely need for the printer to function?

Application software
Driver
Firmware update
Operating system upgrade

The correct answer is: Driver

After connecting the printer to the workstation, the desktop administrator may need to install the proper driver for the printer to function. This is because the driver serves as a bridge between the printer and the operating system, allowing the computer to communicate with the printer. Option A, application software, is not directly related to the printer's functionality. Option C, firmware update, is not necessary as the printer is newly connected. Option D, operating system upgrade, is not needed if the workstation meets the minimum requirements for the printer.
