Printing Basics

Buttons and Lights

The buttons on the front of your

hp deskjet 990c

printer enable

you to turn the printer on and off, cancel a print job, or resume
printing. The lights provide you with visual cues about the state of
your printer. The buttons and lights from left to right are:

Cancel Button

– Press this

button to cancel the current print job
in the printer.

Print Cartridge Status Light

When lit, the light above this symbol
indicates that you need to check the
status of your print cartridges. See
“Print Cartridge Status” on page 35.

Resume Button

and

Light

Whenever the light above the Resume
Button flashes, press the Resume Button to continue printing. See
“What do the flashing lights mean?” on page 51.

Power Button

and

Light

– Use the Power Button to turn the

printer on and off. The green light above the Power Button flashes
when the printer is processing information.

Infrared (Ir) Lens

– Use the infrared lens to print from an

infrared sending device such as a Palm Pilot or PowerBook. See
“Infrared (Ir) Printing” on page 18. When the light to the right of the
infrared lens displays a solid beam, the infrared device is
transmitting information to the printer.

Use only the Power Button on the front of the
printer to turn the printer on and off. Using a power
strip, surge protector, or a wall-mounted switch to
turn the printer on and off may cause premature
printer failure.
