Your mixer can't record, but you can use your computer to record what's coming through it. Usually this requires an audio interface, or at the very least; an input jack on your computer. (not the microphone port, but the line-in)

If you want to record several channels at once and have control of each channel seperately in your recording software, you'll need to have a multiple-input audio interface. There are some relatively cheap ones available with good quality.

If you don't mind having just one stereo recording of everything coming through your mixer, then you don't need a multi-input interface, and you can use your computer's input port. But in both scenarios, you'll needs some kind of recording software to record the sound coming in from your mixer.
