Self diagnostic testing for your device

Runs a diagnostic test of your device. Select Printer on the Self Help menu on the Instant
Support page to start diagnosing the devices. HP Instant Support checks the computer, and a list
of configured devices appears. When you select the device that you want to diagnose,
HP Instant Support can help you with such tasks as making sure that you have the latest device
driver available and gaining access to reports about the device status and detailed device-
diagnostic information.

If any errors are detected during this process, you are given the option to perform updates to the
device drivers or to perform detailed diagnostic tests on the device.
