Using a USB device

Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a hardware interface that can be used to connect an optional external
device, such as a USB keyboard, mouse, drive, printer, scanner, or hub.

Some USB devices may require additional support software, which is usually included with the device.
For more information about device-specific software, refer to the manufacturer's instructions.

Your computer model has 3 USB ports, which support USB 1.0, USB 1.1, and USB 2.0 devices. A USB
hub provides additional USB ports that can be used with the computer.

Connecting a USB device

CAUTION:

To prevent damage to a USB connector, use minimal force to connect a USB device.

To connect a USB device to the computer, connect the USB cable for the device to the USB
port.

Once the USB device has been detected, an icon is placed on the desktop.
