Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using the keyboard, insert the batteries and activate the pairing mode by selecting the desired channel (1, 2, or 3). You can then choose to either plug in the USB receiver for a plug-and-play experience or initiate a standard Bluetooth pairing process on your computer or tablet. For optimal performance, ensure you download the necessary management software from HP to customize your 20+ programmable keys.
