Reprogramming the Quick Launch Buttons (Select Models)

A Quick Launch button can be assigned to any software application, an Internet or network destination, or a data file. For example, a Quick Launch button can be assigned to open your Internet browser to a favorite Web page; to open an application, such as Microsoft Word; or to open a specific file, such as an Excel worksheet.

Button assignments can be grouped into schemes. When you select a scheme, only the button assignments within that scheme are active. Button assignments and schemes are set up, changed, or deleted in the Quick Launch buttons window.

To reprogram a button:

1.Select Start > Control Panel > Printers and Other Hardware > Quick Launch Buttons.

2.On the Settings tab, select the button you want to reprogram.

3.Type a label for the button, and then select the application, document, folder, or Web site you want the button to open.

If you want an icon for the button to appear on the taskbar or on the desktop, select that option on the Advanced tab.
