Tips on maintaining your computer’s health

Keeping your computer happy and healthy requires periodic updates. All computers need operating system updates, driver updates, and software updates on a regular basis, and you should check for updates at least once a month.

Generally, updates are released once a week, so checking them monthly will keep your machine from getting outdated and having issues printing or slowing down. These maintenance updates are required.
