Chapter 2 The HP photo and imaging software entry point is the HP Photosmart Software window. To open the HP Photosmart Software 1. Do one of the following: • On the Windows desktop, double-click the HP Photosmart Software icon. • In the system tray at the far right of the Windows taskbar, double-click the HP Digital Imaging Monitor icon. • On the taskbar, click Start, point to Programs or All Programs, select HP, and then click the HP Photosmart Software. 2. If you have more than one HP device installed, select the tab with your product's name. NOTE: On a Windows computer, the features available in the HP Photosmart Software vary depending on the devices you have installed. The software is customized to show icons that are associated with the selected device. If the selected device is not equipped with a particular feature, then the icon for that feature does not appear in the software. TIP: If the HP Photosmart Software on your computer does not contain any icons, an error might have occurred during the software installation. To correct this, use the Control Panel in Windows to completely uninstall the HP Photosmart Software; then reinstall the software. For more information, see the Getting Started Guide that came with your device. Text and symbols You can use the keypad on the control panel to enter text and symbols. You can also enter text and symbols from the control panel by using the visual keyboard. The visual keyboard appears automatically on the color display when you set up the fax header or speed dial entries. You can also enter symbols from the keypad when you dial a fax or phone number. When the device dials the number, it interprets the symbol and responds accordingly. For example, if you enter a dash in the fax number, the device will pause before dialing the remainder of the number. A pause is useful if you need to gain access to an outside line before dialing the fax number. NOTE: If you want to enter a symbol in your fax number, such as a dash, you need to enter the symbol by using the keypad. Type numbers and text on the control-panel keypad You can enter text or symbols by using the keypad on the control panel. After you are done entering text, press OK to store your entry. 14 Use the device
