# Setting up your Filed Printer

Your team can always export files from your tax software manually, but we also provide the option to install a remote printer that can allow you to print (send) returns to AI Reviewer.

This resource covers how to set up your Filed Printer on your desktop. [Learn more about sending files with Filed Printer here](/articles/sending-files-with-filed-printer.md).
