Setting Up Your HP Computing Equipment
Setting Up Your HP Computing Equipment
Make sure that all the elements of your HP computer system—monitor, document
holder, keyboard, mice and other input devices, and headphones and speakers—are
optimally arranged and adjusted to meet your personal requirements. The
recommendations that follow will help you achieve this.
Your HP Monitor
It is important that your monitor screen be clean and positioned correctly to improve
readability and help you work comfortably. Glare, high contrast, reflections, dirt and
dust will interfere with what you see on the screen. The recommendations that follow
can help you achieve a comfortable arrangement.
•
The top of your monitor screen should be at or slightly below eye level. Most HP
monitors come with a tilt-and-swivel feature that makes it easy to adjust the screen
position.
•
To avoid obscuring your view, the screen should be positioned perpendicular to
your line of sight; that is, straight on.
•
To avoid glare or reflection, try to position the monitor so the screen is at a right
angle to your window rather than in front of it. If reflection or glare persists, tilting
the screen forward may help.
•
Maintain a comfortable viewing distance to the screen. Most people prefer a
viewing distance of approximately 46 to 76 cm (18 to 30 inches), depending on
monitor size. Character size and the amount of space available on the work surface
can affect this distance.
•
Text should be easy to read. To help ease eyestrain, adjust text attributes such as
character size, spacing, and color. In addition, you will need to use the controls
provided with your monitor to adjust the visual settings so that contrast and
brightness levels are comfortable for you. High contrast and low brightness is
usually the preferable combination.
•
The monitor should be free from flicker. If the image on your screen is not stable,
the monitor may require repair or adjustment.

When possible, use a program that has a simple user interface, such as easily
identifiable icons and pull-down menus. Also, screen information should be
displayed in a structured and well-organized way.
