Getting Started
Using the Computer
the cursor from the starting point icon, the
faster the scrolling occurs. To stop
autoscrolling, press any mouse button.
Using the Optical Mouse
The optical mouse is available with select models.
It provides the same functions as the scroll mouse,
but it uses an optical sensor instead of a
mechanical ball to determine the position of
the cursor on the screen. The surface on which
you use the optical mouse plays an important
role in tracking the cursor.
When using the optical mouse:
■
Use a mousepad or a white sheet of paper
underneath your mouse. Using it on a glass
or see-through surface inhibits the ability of
the sensor to track the cursor.
■
Avoid using the mouse on a reflective surface
such as a mirror or shiny metal disk. This may
cause tracking problems.
■
Some wood grains and grooved surfaces may
also cause tracking problems.
■
If your mouse does not function properly, see
the troubleshooting section “Optical Mouse”
on page 7–25.
Autoscrolling does not work with some
software.
