How can I adjust the monitor's settings?

What does '99% sRGB' mean?

What is the energy efficiency rating?

Troubleshooting

No image displayed on the screen

Ensure the monitor is powered on, the power cable is securely connected, and the video cable (HDMI or VGA) is properly connected to both the monitor and the computer. Try a different cable or port if available.

Screen flickering or distorted image

Check the video cable connection for looseness. Ensure the display resolution and refresh rate are set correctly within your computer's display settings (ideally 1920x1080 at 100Hz). Update your graphics drivers.

Colors appear inaccurate or washed out

Adjust the color settings via the monitor's On-Screen Display (OSD) menu or through the HP Display Center software. Ensure the color gamut is set to sRGB if applicable for your content.

Monitor not detected by computer

Restart both the monitor and the computer. Reconnect the video cable. If using HDMI, try the second HDMI port. Ensure the correct input source is selected on the monitor.

Blue light filter (HP Eye Ease) seems to be affecting colors

HP Eye Ease is designed to minimize blue light without impacting color accuracy. If you notice significant color shifts, check monitor settings and ensure the feature is enabled through the OSD. Sometimes, a specific color profile might need adjustment.
