How to determine which software program is controlling the customizable buttons
If you are not sure which software program is controlling the customizable buttons, follow
the steps appropriate for the computer operating system.
Windows
Windows users can configure all four customizable buttons to work with HP Photosmart
Software or HP Smart Document Scan Software, if both scanning programs are installed
on the computer. If only one of the programs is installed on the computer, the buttons
default to working with that program.
Follow these steps if you are not sure which program is controlling the customizable
buttons:
1. To open the Button Settings Utility, do one of the following:
Double-click the HP Button Settings Utility icon on the desktop.
–Click Start, point to Programs or All Programs, point to HP, point to
Scanjet, point to 8350, 8390, and then click Button Settings Utility.
2. Find the Select software for customizable buttons heading. The software that is
controlling the buttons is selected.
If the Button Settings Utility is not installed, you must use the HP Solution Center to
configure buttons.
For more information, see Configure the scanner customizable buttons.
If a non-HP program opens when you press one of the customizable buttons, see An
unexpected program opens when a customizable button is pressed.
