Help system
The HP Traditional host-based driver includes a full-featured Help system to provide assistance with
printing and configuration options.
What's this? Help
What's this? Help is supported in Windows 98 and Windows Me. You can gain access to What's this?
Help messages in any of the following ways:
●
Right-click a control and then click What's this?. A pop-up Help window appears.
●
Click the ? button at the upper-right corner of the frame, next to the X, to change the cursor to an
arrow with a question mark. When you use this special cursor to select a control, the pop-up Help
window for that feature appears.
●
Press the F1 key, and the Help window for the currently selected control appears.
Context-sensitive Help
When you click the Help button on a driver tab or in a dialog box, a context-sensitive Help message
appears.
Feature Unavailable messages
Feature Unavailable settings (constraint) messages are unsolicited messages that appear in response
to specific actions that you take. These messages alert you to selections that are illogical or impossible
given the capabilities of the printer or the current settings of other controls. For example, if you click
Print on Both Sides and then change the media type to Transparency, a message appears asking
you to resolve this conflict.
Figure 3-1 A typical constraint message with an OK button
Whenever a constraint message appears with the OK and Cancel buttons, the interpretation of the
buttons is as follows:
●
Clicking OK accepts the change that was just made, and the driver then resets the conflicting
control to a setting that is compatible with the new value.
●
Clicking Cancel rejects the change that was just made, and the control returns to its previous value.
