I need to make a copy on a HP deskjet 2542 that says it will print, scan and copy but I do not see a button to press to make the copy. What am I missing.

Hi Nacny2015,

 

On your display you have  a few buttons.

 

You have the power on button, below that the cancel button, and a few more below those, are two "colour circles".

 

One of them is with black/white and the other is in colour.

 

You use either of these two, depending on whether you want a black/white copy or a colour copy.

 

Hope it helps  :generic:
