Use the HP Solution Center (Windows)

Use the HP Solution Center to change print settings, order supplies, and access the
onscreen Help.
The features available in the HP Solution Center vary depending on the devices you
have installed. The HP Solution Center 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 HP Solution
Center.
If the HP Solution Center 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 and reinstall the software.
