Third Party Hardware
If you are having a problem with a third-party device not made by Apple, you should check out that manufacturer's website for support information. For example, try searching the HP website for information on connecting an HP printer to your Mac. Same goes for monitors, external storage devices, routers and anything else.
Software
Sometimes what you need is software that can troubleshoot your computer system and check the connections to other devices. Also, software downloads can help if your system is just acting strange or running slow. If a software solution exists, you can find it download.com.
