Dear K Zahra (next time with the affiliation, please :)

What properties of the HOMO and LUMO do you want to study? Eigenvalues, how they look like, their reactivity, ...? The eigenvalues you can get with 'pw.x' (for LUMO you need to include some unoccupied/virtual orbitals), the wave functions with 'pp.x'. If you go for the Wannier functions, please notice that CO has a double bond, and there is some ambiguity in the localisation of the Wannier functions ("banana bonds"), so in that case I would think twice before using them - and actually they are not for you, because via the localisation all the occupied orbitals are mixed, so there is no longer "HOMO" when using them.

Dear,

I am a beginner student with  quantum espresso code, I would like to study the 
boundary orbitals of the molecule of CO, I would be grateful if anyone can help 
me to show the steps to follow in
order to study the HOMO and LUMO of carbon monoxide;

Cordially
