Using a mouse
You may want to use a mouse instead of the computer’s
TouchPad, You can use a USB-compatible mouse.
After logging on to your system, the mouse cursor may move
to the upper-right side of the screen. If this occurs, press the
Esc or Windows key to return it to its original position.
Connecting a printer
Your printer documentation may require you to install the
printer software before physically connecting the printer to
your computer. If you do not install the software as instructed
by the printer manufacturer, the printer may not function
correctly.
Read the documentation that came with your printer. Follow
the manufacturer’s instructions when connecting a printer.
You can connect a USB-compatible printer to your computer
through the USB ports. To determine if the printer is USB-
compatible, check its documentation.
To make the connection, you need a suitable USB cable,
which may come with your printer. If a USB cable was not
included with your printer, you can purchase one from a
computer or electronics store.
If your printer supports Plug and Play, your computer will
automatically recognize the printer; the printer is then ready
