The
HP Director
displays only the icons that are appropriate for the
selected device.
Note:
The HP Director graphic below might appear differently on your
computer. The HP Director is customized based upon the HP device that is
selected. If your device is not equipped with a particular feature, then the
icon for that feature will not display in the HP Director on your computer.
Tip:
If the HP Director 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 the HP Director software, and then reinstall the
HP Director.
