Guidelines for scanning documents as editable text
Use the following guidelines to ensure the software successfully converts your documents.
●Make sure the scanner glass or document feeder window is clean.
Smudges or dust on the scanner glass or document feeder window can prevent the software from
converting the document to editable text
●Make sure the document is loaded correctly.
Make sure the original is properly loaded and that the document is not skewed.
●Make sure the text on the document is clear.
To successfully convert the document to editable text, the original must be clear and of high quality.
The following conditions can cause the software to not convert the document successfully:
–The text on the original is faint or wrinkled.
–The text is too small.
–The structure of the document is too complex.
–The text is tightly spaced. For example, if the text that the software converts has missing or
combined characters, "rn" might appear as "m."
–The text is on a colored background. Colored backgrounds can cause images in the foreground to
blend too much.
●Choose the correct prole.
Be sure to select a shortcut or preset that allows scanning as editable text. These options use scan
settings designed to maximize the quality of your OCR scan.
Windows: Use the Editable Text (OCR) or Save as PDF shortcuts.
OS X: Use the Documents with Text preset.
●Save your le in the correct format.
If you want to extract just the text from the document, without any of the formatting of the original,
select a plain text format, such as Text (.txt) or TXT.
If you want to extract the text, as well as some of the formatting of the original, select Rich Text Format,
such as Rich Text (.rtf) or RTF, or searchable PDF format, such as Searchable PDF (.pdf) or Searchable
PDF .

Send a fax in Error Correction Mode
Error Correction Mode (ECM) prevents loss of data due to poor phone lines by detecting errors that occur
during transmission and automatically requesting retransmission of the erroneous portion. Phone charges
are unaected, or might even be reduced, on good phone lines. On poor phone lines, ECM increases sending
time and phone charges, but sends the data much more reliably. The default setting is On . Turn ECM o only
if it increases phone charges substantially, and if you can accept poorer quality in exchange for reduced
charges.
ENWWSend a fax53
If you turn ECM o:
●The quality and transmission speed of faxes you send and receive are aected.
●The Speed is automatically set to Medium .
●You can no longer send or receive faxes in color.

OnThe default setting. When Backup fax is On , the printer stores all received faxes in memory. This
enables you to reprint up to 30 of the most recently printed faxes if they are still saved in memory.
NOTE:When printer memory is low, it overwrites the oldest, printed faxes as it receives new
faxes. If the memory becomes full of unprinted faxes, the printer stops answering incoming fax
calls.
NOTE:If you receive a fax that is too large, such as a very detailed color photo, it might not be
stored in memory due to memory limitations.
On Error OnlyCauses the printer to store faxes in memory only if an error condition exists that prevents the
printer from printing the faxes (for example, if the printer runs out of paper). The printer continues
to store incoming faxes as long as there is memory available. (If the memory becomes full, the
printer stops answering incoming fax calls.) When the error condition is resolved, the faxes stored
in memory print automatically, and then they are deleted from memory.
OFaxes are never stored in memory. For example, you might want to turn oBackup fax for security
purposes. If an error condition occurs that prevents the printer from printing (for example, the
printer runs out of paper), the printer stops answering incoming fax calls.
Reprint received faxes from memory
The received faxes that are not printed are stored in memory.
NOTE:After the memory becomes full, the printer cannot receive the new fax until you print or delete the
faxes from memory. You might also want to delete the faxes in memory for security or privacy purposes.

Set automatic reduction for incoming faxes
The Automatic Reduction setting determines what the printer does if it receives a fax that is too large for the
loaded paper size. This setting is turned on by default, so the image of the incoming fax is reduced to t on
one page, if possible. If this feature is turned o, information that does not t on the rst page is printed on a

Block unwanted fax numbers
If you subscribe to a caller ID service through your phone provider, you can block specic fax numbers so the
printer does not receive faxes received from those numbers. When an incoming fax call is received, the printer
compares the number to the list of junk fax numbers to determine if the call should be blocked. If the number
matches a number in the blocked fax numbers list, the fax is not received. (The maximum number of fax
numbers you can block varies by model.)
NOTE:This feature is not supported in all countries/regions. If it is not supported in your country/region,
Junk Fax Blocking does not appear in the Preferences menu.
NOTE:If no phone numbers are added in the Caller ID list, it is assumed that you are not subscribed to a

Set the number of rings before answering
If you turn on the Auto Answer setting, you can specify how many rings occur before incoming calls are
automatically answered.
The Rings to Answer setting is important if you have an answering machine on the same phone line as the
printer, because you want the answering machine to answer the phone before the printer does. The number
of rings to answer for the printer should be greater than the number of rings to answer for the answering
machine.
For example, set your answering machine to a low number of rings and the printer to answer in the maximum
number of rings. (The maximum number of rings varies by country/region.) In this setup, the answering
machine answers the call and the printer monitors the line. If the printer detects fax tones, it receives the fax.
If the call is a voice call, the answering machine records the incoming message.

Change the answer ring pattern for distinctive ring
Many phone companies oer a distinctive ring feature that allows you to have several phone numbers on one
phone line. When you subscribe to this service, each number is assigned a dierent ring pattern. You can set
up the printer to answer incoming calls that have a specic ring pattern.
If you connect the printer to a line with distinctive ring, have your telephone company assign one ring pattern
to voice calls and another ring pattern to fax calls. HP recommends that you request double or triple rings for
a fax number. When the printer detects the specied ring pattern, it answers the call and receives the fax.
TIP:You can also use the Ring Pattern Detection feature in the printer control panel to set distinctive ring.
With this feature, the printer recognizes and records the ring pattern of an incoming call and, based on this
call, automatically determines the distinctive ring pattern assigned by your telephone company to fax calls.

Fax and digital phone services
Many telephone companies provide their customers with digital phone services, such as the following:
●DSL: A Digital subscriber line (DSL) service through your telephone company. (DSL might be called ADSL
in your country/region.)
●PBX: A private branch exchange (PBX) phone system.
●ISDN: An integrated services digital network (ISDN) system.
●VoIP: A low-cost phone service that allows you to send and receive faxes with your printer by using the
Internet. This method is called Fax on Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP).
For more information, see Fax on Voice over Internet Protocol.
HP printers are designed specically for use with traditional analog phone services. If you are in a digital
phone environment (such as DSL/ADSL, PBX, or ISDN), you might need to use digital-to-analog lters or
converters when setting up the printer for faxing.
NOTE:HP does not guarantee that the printer will be compatible with all digital service lines or providers, in
all digital environments, or with all digital-to-analog converters. It is always recommended that you discuss
with the telephone company directly for the correct setup options based on their line services provided.
Fax on Voice over Internet Protocol
You might be able to subscribe to a low cost phone service that allows you to send and receive faxes with your
printer by using the Internet. This method is called Fax on Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP).
The following are indications you probably use a VoIP service.
●Dial a special access code along with the fax number.
●Have an IP converter box that connects to the Internet and provides analog phone ports for the fax
connection.
NOTE:You can only send and receive faxes by connecting a phone cord to the port labeled "1-LINE" on the
printer. This means that your connection to the Internet must be done either through a converter box (which
supplies regular analog phone jacks for fax connections) or your telephone company.
TIP:Support for traditional fax transmission over any Internet protocol telephone systems are often
limited. If you experience problems faxing, try using a slower fax speed or disabling the fax error-correction
mode (ECM). However, if you turn o ECM, you cannot send and receive color faxes.
If you have questions about Internet faxing, contact your Internet faxing services support department or your
local service provider for further assistance.
Use reports
You can set up the printer to print error reports and conrmation reports automatically for each fax you send
and receive. You can also manually print system reports as required; these reports provide useful system
information about the printer.
By default, the printer is set to print a report only if there is a problem sending or receiving a fax. A
conrmation message that indicates whether a fax was successfully sent appears briey on the control panel

Set up faxing (parallel phone systems)
Before you begin setting up the printer for faxing, determine which kind of phone system your country/region
uses. The instructions for fax setup dier depending on whether you have a serial- or parallel-type phone
system.
●If you do not see your country/region listed in the table, you probably have a serial-type phone system.
In a serial-type phone system, the connector type on your shared telephone equipment (modems,
phones, and answering machines) does not allow a physical connection to the "2-EXT" port on the
printer. Instead, all equipment must be connected at the telephone wall jack.
NOTE:You might need to connect the phone cord to your country/region adapter.
●If your country/region is listed in the table, you probably have a parallel-type telephone system. In
a parallel-type phone system, you are able to connect shared telephone equipment to the phone line by
using the "2-EXT" port on the back of the printer.
NOTE:If you have a parallel-type phone system, HP recommends you connect a 2-wire phone cord to
the telephone wall jack.

Select the correct fax setup for your home or oice
To fax successfully, you need to know what types of equipment and services (if any) share the same phone
line with the printer. This is important because you might need to connect some of your existing oice
equipment directly to the printer, and you might also need to change some fax settings before you can fax
successfully.
1.Determine if your telephone system is serial or parallel.
For more information, see Set up faxing (parallel phone systems).
2.Select the combination of equipment and services sharing your fax line.
●DSL: A Digital subscriber line (DSL) service through your telephone company. (DSL might be called
ADSL in your country/region.)
●PBX: A private branch exchange (PBX) phone system.
●ISDN: An integrated services digital network (ISDN) system.
●Distinctive ring service: A distinctive ring service through your telephone company provides
multiple telephone numbers with dierent ring patterns.
●Voice calls: Voice calls are received at the same phone number you use for fax calls on the printer.
●Computer dial-up modem: A computer dial-up modem is on the same phone line as the printer. If
you answer Yes to any of the following questions, you are using a computer dial-up modem:
–Do you send and receive faxes directly to and from your computer software applications
through a dial-up connection?
–Do you send and receive email messages on your computer through a dial-up connection?
–Do you access the Internet from your computer through a dial-up connection?
●Answering machine: An answering machine that answers voice calls at the same phone number
you use for fax calls on the printer.
●Voice mail service: A voice mail subscription through your telephone company at the same number
you use for fax calls on the printer.
3.From the following table, select the combination of equipment and services applicable to your home or
oice setting. Then look up the recommended fax setup. Step-by-step instructions are included for each
case in the sections that follow.
NOTE:If your home or oice setup is not described in this section, set up the printer as you would a regular
analog phone. Connect one end of the phone cord to your telephone wall and the other end to the port
labeled 1-LINE on the back of the printer.
You might need to connect the phone cord to your country/region adapter.

Case C: Set up the printer with a PBX phone system or an ISDN line
If you are using either a PBX phone system or an ISDN converter/terminal adapter, make sure you do the
following:
●If you are using either a PBX or an ISDN converter/terminal adaptor, connect the printer to the port that
is designated for fax and phone use. Also, make sure that the terminal adapter is set to the correct
switch type for your country/region, if possible.
NOTE:Some ISDN systems allow you to congure the ports for specic phone equipment. For
example, you might have assigned one port for telephone and Group 3 fax and another port for multiple
purposes. If you have problems when connected to the fax/phone port of your ISDN converter, try using
the port designated for multiple purposes; it might be labeled "multi-combi" or something similar.
●If you are using a PBX phone system, set the call waiting tone to "o."
NOTE:Many digital PBX systems include a call-waiting tone that is set to "on" by default. The call
waiting tone interferes with any fax transmission, and you cannot send or receive faxes with the printer.
Refer to the documentation that came with your PBX phone system for instructions on how to turn o
the call-waiting tone.
●If you are using a PBX phone system, dial the number for an outside line before dialing the fax number.

Information on cartridges and the printhead
The following tips help maintain HP cartridges and ensure consistent print quality.
●The instructions in this guide are for replacing cartridges, and are not intended for rst time installation.
●Keep all cartridges in the original sealed packages until they are needed.
●Be sure to turn o the printer properly. For more information, see Turn the printer o .
●Store cartridges at room temperature (15-35° C or 59-95° F).
●Do not clean the printhead unnecessarily. This wastes ink and shortens the life of the cartridges.
●Handle cartridges carefully. Dropping, jarring, or rough handling during installation can cause temporary
printing problems.
●If you are transporting the printer, do the following to prevent ink leaking from the printer or other
damage from occurring to the printer:
–Make sure you turn o the printer by pressing (the Power button). Wait until all sounds of
internal motion stop before unplugging the printer.
–Make sure you leave the cartridges installed.
–The printer must be transported sitting at; it should not be placed on its side, back, front, or top.
CAUTION:HP recommends that you replace any missing cartridges as soon as possible to avoid print quality
issues and possible extra ink usage or damage to the ink system. Never turn o the printer when cartridges
are missing.
ENWWInformation on cartridges and the printhead93
NOTE:This printer is not designed to use continuous ink systems. To resume printing, remove continuous
ink system and install original HP (or compatible) cartridges.
NOTE:This printer is designed for ink cartridges to be used until they are empty. Relling cartridges prior to
depletion might cause your printer to fail. If this happens, insert a new cartridge (either genuine HP or
compatible) to continue printing.
Related topics
●Check the estimated ink levels
Some color ink is used even when printing with black cartridge
only
Ink is used in a number of ways throughout the inkjet printing process. In general, ink in a cartridge is used for
printing documents, photographs and other such materials. Some ink, however, must be used to maintain the
health of the printhead; some ink is residual; and some ink evaporates. For more information on ink usage,
visit www.hp.com/go/learnaboutsupplies and click HP Ink. (You might need to select your country/region
using the Select Country button on the page.)
Check the estimated ink levels
You can check the estimated ink levels from the printer software or from the printer control panel.
To check the estimated ink levels from the printer control panel
▲From the printer control panel, touch or swipe down the tab at the top of the screen to open the
Dashboard, and then touch (Ink) to check the estimated ink levels.
NOTE:Ink level alerts and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. When you receive a low-
ink alert, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not have
to replace the cartridges until prompted to do so.
NOTE:If you have installed a relled or remanufactured cartridge, or a cartridge that has been used in
another printer, the ink level indicator might be inaccurate or unavailable.
NOTE:Ink from the cartridges is used in the printing process in a number of dierent ways, including in the
initialization process, which prepares the printer and cartridges for printing, and in printhead servicing, which
keeps print nozzles clear and ink owing smoothly. In addition, some residual ink is left in the cartridge after
it is used. For more information, see www.hp.com/go/inkusage .
Replace the cartridges
NOTE:For information on recycling used ink supplies, see HP inkjet supplies recycling program.
If you do not already have replacement cartridges for the printer, see Order ink cartridges.

For more information, see Turn the printer o .
Anonymous usage information storage
The HP cartridges used with this printer contain a memory chip that assists in the operation of the printer. In
addition, this memory chip stores a limited set of anonymous information about the usage of the printer,
which might include the following: the number of pages printed using the cartridge, the page coverage,
frequency of printing, and the printing modes used.
This information helps HP design future printers to meet our customers' printing needs. The data collected
from the cartridge memory chip does not contain information that can be used to identify a customer or user
of the cartridge or their printer.
HP collects a sampling of the memory chips from cartridges returned to HP's free return and recycling
program (HP Planet Partners: www.hp.com/recycle ). The memory chips from this sampling are read and
studied in order to improve future HP printers. HP partners who assist in recycling this cartridge might have
access to this data, as well.
Any third party possessing the cartridge might have access to the anonymous information on the memory
chip. If you prefer to not allow access to this information, you can render the chip inoperable. However, after
you render the memory chip inoperable, the cartridge cannot be used in an HP printer.
If you are concerned about providing this anonymous information, you can make this information inaccessible
by turning o the memory chip's ability to collect the printer's usage information.

What kind of fax problem are you having?
The display always shows Phone O Hook
●HP recommends using a 2-wire phone cord.
●Other equipment that uses the same phone line as the printer might be in use. Make sure extension
phones (phones on the same phone line, but not connected to the printer) or other equipment are not in

use or o the hook. For example, you cannot use the printer for faxing if an extension phone is o the
hook, or if you are using a computer dial-up modem to send email or access the Internet.
The printer is having problems sending and receiving faxes
●Make sure the printer is turned on. Look at the display on the printer. If the display is blank and
(the Power button) light is not lit, the printer is turned o. Make sure the power cord is rmly connected
to the printer and plugged into a power outlet. Press (the Power button) to turn on the printer.
After turning on the printer, HP recommends you wait ve minutes before sending or receiving a fax. The
printer cannot send or receive faxes while it is initializing after being turned on.
●If HP Digital Fax has been enabled, you might not be able to send or receive faxes if the fax memory is
full (limited by printer memory).
●Connect one end of the phone cord to your telephone wall jack, then connect the other end to the port
labeled 1-LINE on the back of the printer.
1Telephone wall jack
2Connect the phone cord to the port labelled 1-LINE on the back of the printer.
●Try connecting a working phone and phone cord to the telephone wall jack that you are using for the
printer and check for a dial tone. If you do not hear a dial tone, call your local telephone company for
service.
●Other equipment, which uses the same phone line as the printer, might be in use. For example, you
cannot use the printer for faxing if an extension phone is o the hook, or if you are using a computer
dial-up modem to send an email or access the Internet.
●Check to see if another process has caused an error. Check the display or your computer for an error
message providing information about the problem and how to solve it. If there is an error, the printer
cannot send or receive a fax until the error condition is resolved.
●The phone line connection might be noisy. Phone lines with poor sound quality (noise) can cause faxing
problems. Check the sound quality of the phone line by plugging a phone into the telephone wall jack
and listening for static or other noise. If you hear noise, turn Error Correction Mode (ECM) o and try
faxing again. If the problem persists, contact your telephone company.
●If you are using a digital subscriber line (DSL) service, make sure that you have a DSL lter connected or
you cannot fax successfully.
126Chapter 10 Solve a problemENWW
●Make sure the printer is not connected to a telephone wall jack that is set up for digital phones. To check
if your phone line is digital, connect a regular analog phone to the line and listen for a dial tone. If you do
not hear a normal sounding dial tone, it might be a phone line set up for digital phones.
●If you are using either a private branch exchange (PBX) or an integrated services digital network (ISDN)
converter/terminal adapter, make sure the printer is connected to the correct port and the terminal
adapter is set to the correct switch type for your country/region, if possible.
●If the printer shares the same phone line with a DSL service, the DSL modem might not be grounded
correctly. If the DSL modem is not grounded correctly, it can create noise on the phone line. Phone lines
with poor sound quality (noise) can cause faxing problems. You can check the sound quality of the
phone line by plugging a phone into the telephone wall jack and listening for static or other noise. If you
hear noise, turn
o your DSL modem and completely remove power for at least 15 minutes. Turn the
DSL modem back on and listen to the dial tone again.
NOTE:You might notice static on the phone line again in the future. If the printer stops sending and
receiving faxes, repeat this process.
If the phone line is still noisy, contact your telephone company. For information on turning your DSL
modem o, contact your DSL provider for support.
●If you are using a phone splitter, this can cause faxing problems. (A splitter is a two-cord connector that
plugs into a telephone wall jack.) Try removing the splitter and connecting the printer directly to the
telephone wall jack.
The printer cannot receive faxes, but can send faxes
●If you are not using a distinctive ring service, check to make sure that the Distinctive Ring feature on the
printer is set to All Standard Rings .
●If Auto Answer is set to O , you need to receive faxes manually; otherwise, the printer cannot receive
the fax.
●If you have a voice mail service at the same phone number you use for fax calls, you must receive faxes
manually, not automatically. This means that you must be available to respond in person to incoming
fax calls.
●If you have a computer dial-up modem on the same phone line with the printer, check to make sure that
the software that came with your modem is not set to receive faxes automatically. Modems that are set
up to receive faxes automatically take over the phone line to receive all incoming faxes, which prevents
the printer from receiving fax calls.
●If you have an answering machine on the same phone line with the printer, you might have one of the
following problems:
–Your answering machine might not be set up correctly with the printer.
–Your outgoing message might be too long or too loud to allow the printer to detect fax tones, and
the sending fax machine might disconnect.
–Your answering machine might not have enough quiet time after your outgoing message to allow
the printer to detect fax tones. This problem is most common with digital answering machines.
The following actions might help solve these problems:
–When you have an answering machine on the same phone line you use for fax calls, try connecting
the answering machine directly to the printer.
–Make sure the printer is set to receive faxes automatically.
ENWWFax issues127
–Make sure the Rings to Answer setting is set to a greater number of rings than the answering
machine.
–Disconnect the answering machine and then try receiving a fax. If faxing is successful without the
answering machine, the answering machine might be causing the problem.
–Reconnect the answering machine and record your outgoing message again. Record a message
that is approximately 10 seconds in duration. Speak slowly and at a low volume when recording
your message. Leave at least 5 seconds of silence at the end of the voice message. There should be
no background noise when recording this silent time. Try to receive a fax again.
NOTE:Some digital answering machines might not retain the recorded silence at the end of your
outgoing message. Play back your outgoing message to check.
●If the printer shares the same phone line with other types of phone equipment, such as an answering
machine, a computer dial-up modem, or a multi-port switch box, the fax signal level might be reduced.
The signal level can also be reduced if you use a splitter or connect extra cables to extend the length of
your phone. A reduced fax signal can cause problems during fax reception.
To nd out if other equipment is causing a problem, disconnect everything except the printer from the
phone line, and then try to receive a fax. If you can receive faxes successfully without the other
equipment, one or more pieces of the other equipment is causing problems; try adding them back one at
a time and receiving a fax each time, until you identify which equipment is causing the problem.
●If you have a special ring pattern for your fax phone number (using a distinctive ring service through
your telephone company), make sure that the Distinctive Ring feature on the printer is set to match.
The printer cannot send faxes, but can receive faxes
●The printer might be dialing too fast or too soon. You might need to insert some pauses in the number
sequence. For example, if you need to access an outside line before dialing the phone number, insert
a pause following the access number. If your number is 95555555, and 9 accesses an outside line, you
might insert pauses as follows: 9-555-5555. To enter a pause in the fax number you are typing, touch
the * repeatedly, until a dash (-) appears on the display.
You can also send the fax using monitor dialing. This enables you to listen to the phone line as you dial.
You can set the pace of your dialing and respond to prompts as you dial.
●The number you entered when sending the fax is not in the proper format or the receiving fax machine is
having problems. To check this, try calling the fax number from a telephone and listen for fax tones. If
you cannot hear fax tones, the receiving fax machine might not be turned on or connected, or a voice
mail service could be interfering with the recipient's phone line. You can also ask the recipient to check
the receiving fax machine for any problems.
Fax tones are recorded on my answering machine
●When you have an answering machine on the same phone line you use for fax calls, try connecting the
answering machine directly to the printer. If you do not connect the answering machine as
recommended, fax tones might be recorded on your answering machine.
●Make sure the printer is set to receive faxes automatically and that the Rings to Answer setting is
correct. The number of rings to answer for the printer should be greater than the number of rings to
answer for the answering machine. If the answering machine and the printer are set to the same
number of rings to answer, both devices answer the call and fax tones are recorded on the answering
machine.
●Set your answering machine to a low number of rings and the printer to answer in the maximum number
of rings supported. (The maximum number of rings varies by country/region.) In this setup, the
answering machine answers the call and the printer monitors the line. If the printer detects fax tones,
128Chapter 10 Solve a problemENWW
the printer receives the fax. If the call is a voice call, the answering machine records the incoming
message.
The computer cannot receive faxes (HP Digital Fax)
●The computer selected to receive faxes is turned o. Make sure the computer selected to receive faxes is
switched on at all times.
●Dierent computers are congured for setup and receiving faxes and one of them may be switched o.
If the computer receiving faxes is dierent from the one used for setup, both computers should be

Maintain the printhead and cartridges
If you are experiencing problems with printing, you might have a problem with the printhead. You should
perform the procedures in the following sections only when directed to do so for resolving print quality
issues.
ENWWMaintain the printer135
Performing the aligning and cleaning procedures unnecessarily can waste ink and shorten the life of the
cartridges.
●Clean the printhead if your printed output is streaked or has any incorrect or missing colors.
There are three stages of cleaning. Each stage lasts about two minutes, uses one sheet of paper, and
uses an increasing amount of ink. After each stage, review the quality of the printed page. You should
only initiate the next phase of cleaning if the print quality is poor.
If print quality still seems poor after you complete all stages of cleaning, try aligning the printhead. If
print quality problems persist after cleaning and aligning, contact HP support. For more information, see
HP support.
●Align the printhead when the printer status page shows streaking or white lines through any of the
blocks of color, or if you are having print quality issues with your printouts.
The printer automatically aligns the printhead during the initial setup.
NOTE:Cleaning uses ink, so clean the printhead only when necessary. The cleaning process takes a few
minutes. Some noise might be generated in the process.
Always use the Power button to turn o the printer. Turning the printer o improperly can cause print quality
problems.
To clean or align the printhead
1.Load Letter or A4 unused plain white paper into the input tray. For more information, see Load paper.
2.From the printer control panel, touch or swipe down the tab at the top of the screen to open the
Dashboard, and then touch
