Getting Started
Turning off the computer
Setting up a printer
Some printers require a specific installation process. Refer to your
printer installation guide for instructions before completing the
following procedure.
If your printer does not support Plug and Play, follow these steps to
set it up for the first time. You only need to set up the printer once.
1 Click Start, Control Panel, Hardware and Sound, and then
under Devices and Printers, click Add a printer.
The Add Printer Wizard appears.

2 Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your printer.
Turning off the computer
Pressing the power button before shutting down the Windows
®
operating system could cause you to lose your work. Make sure the
system indicator panel’s storage drive light and the drive in-use light
are off. If you turn off the power while a disk/disc is being accessed,
you may lose data or damage the disk/disc and/or drive.
It is a good idea to turn off your computer when you are not using it
for a while.
If you are using the computer for the first time, leave the computer
plugged into a power source (even though the computer is off) to
fully charge the main battery.
