New printer, can't see how to shut it down except by unplugging it.  Is this correct?

I can't find an Envy 6500 printer - and the Officejet 6500 printer is circa 2009.

?

 

Regardless, if you can find your printer, you can open the printer's support website

Select Category Manuals

Open the User Guide and find - in the first few pages - quite a bit about the parts and how the printer works.

 

And, as a general answer to your question - I have yet to see a printer without an on/off switch.  There might be one out there somewhere - I've not run across it.

 

Printer  Home Page - References and Resources – Learn about your Printer  - Solve Problems
