...HP Photosmart 5510 Series User Manual M. Raquel Medina ENG/221 August 14, 2012 Gregory Bontz Recently purchased, by the writer, was an HP All-in-One printer, scanner, and copier, the HP Photosmart 5510 series. A manual was provided in the boxed package but can also be viewed online at http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02983578.pdf. The manual provides simplicity, clarity, attractiveness, organization and graphical illustrations. It is a well written instructional manual for users of any technical level, although the length of the document is a little too long. According to Don Norman, “People do not want to read manuals — they want to do their activity. Help them get right to work, with minimum reading” (Norman, 2012). At times a reader can become confused and frustrated with a user manual that is too big. Keeping the manual clear and simple is important. Simplicity • Positive: The HP Photosmart 5510 series user manual is made simple because of the shortness in its index. There are only nine major topics that are covered in the manual but these nine are the key points to operating the device. The manual has each topic linked to the page so a simple point and click gets you to the information needed. • Negative: The Technical Information portion of this manual was not easy to follow. Although, technical information is not the easiest to make simple. Clarity • Positive: Clarity is important when reading a user manual because your...

...Food Giant Standardizes on HP for Infrastructure of Champions HP success story One of the largest food companies in the world, General Mills has one of the lowest IT spends per revenue dollar in the consumer packaged goods manufacturing industry. The company, which has long pursued a strategy of IT standardization and consolidation, operates its entire global enterprise on HP systems — from the HP Integrity servers that run its SAP ERP and Business Information Warehouse, to the HP iPAQ Pocket PCs used by its retail salesforce. In addition to cost savings, the simplified infrastructure has enabled quick response to business change — most notably when General Mills acquired Pillsbury, a company of near equal size, and integrated it into its infrastructure in just 16 months. General Mills markets 100 of the world’s best-loved food brands, including Betty Crocker, Haagen-Dazs, Pillsbury, Green Giant, Old El Paso, Wheaties and Cheerios. It holds the No.1 or No.2 market position in virtually every category in which it competes. It also relies on a single vendor for its IT systems worldwide: HP. “We think that we’re extremely different in the way that we manage information systems at General Mills,” says Vandy Johnson, senior director of I.S. Operations, who oversees the $12.3 billion - dollar company’s business warehouse, data management, telecom, network, I.S. security, data center, and server and web infrastructure operations. General Mills operates the core of its business...

...professions and four computers. For the computers, I have chosen the Dell Inspiron Desk Top, the Hp Pavilion Slimline desk top, the Toshiba Satellite Laptop and the Hp Envy laptop. I have chosen author, educator and lawyer as my profession. I will pair the appropriate computer with its profession. An author may seem like they would not need much in the way of computers. Often times they do not even use computers to write, but instead prefer pen and paper. However, the work will have to put into a computer sooner or later. An author probably would not be in need for very much space. Their work will most likely be stored on portable storage devices so that they can transport it agencies. Because of this, I think that a suitable computer for an author would be the Toshiba Satellite laptop. It has memory and hard drive space, just not a lot. It is cheap and would serve its purpose for the author perfectly without having the extra features. Teachers and instructors have a little more of need for space. Again, however, they don’t need a lot. They would have to save their lectures and all their classwork saved on their computers as well as the students’ grades. All of this would indeed take up space, but not enough to warrant the extra money for the memory and hard drive. They would do just fine with the standard amount of space. For this reason, I suggest either the Dell Inspiron desk top or the Hp Envy series laptop. These...

The HP TopShot LaserJet Pro M275 is HP’s first web-connected color laser multifunction printer with the power to scan 3D objects, which can be used to create unique artwork and presentations.

...light at the end of the tunnel. HP has gone through 4 CEOs in 8 years which has caused changes in environment, culture, and the trust of stockholders and investors. However, current CEO Meg Whitman has a positive outlook. In the last year since her start with HP, she has implemented a four year restructuring plan.

...the bottom line. He started his career at Wal-mart and introduced the data ware house concept at Wal-Mart with which they were able to analyze buying trends. Wal-Mart was a pioneer in this as no other company had this capability. He became CIO at Dell where helped he group 100 separate systems into a single data warehouse system. Mott started at HP in order to turn HP from the bloated leviathan it had become into a lean, mean, agile organization. He took several initiatives at HP. We are going to explore the initiatives taken at HP through the questions that we are answering for this case study. Questions we are trying to answer: 1. In what ways is Randy Mott trying to change HP’s structure and the way it works? 2. In what ways has he been trying to change HP’s culture? 3. Go to the internet and find some articles on HP recent performance. How have the changes he made affected HP’s competitive advantage and performance? 1. In what ways is Randy Mott trying to change HP’s structure and the way it works? Ans: HP worked in a decentralized manner, he is trying to centralizing the business. Making sure entire HP is working of a single set of data. He is also working towards cutting costs.

...How to get back on track You don’t know this about me but I was 14 years old and won 2nd place in the regional Chess competition along with 3rd place in the state and 8th place in nationals (that’s 8th in 100 competitors). What I learned (beside that I am awesome) was that everything in life if a chess game and should be treated as such. Along the way I learned project managing and learned that everything in life requires management and a manager for it. So combining those concepts you get that everything in life needs to be managed with grace, foresight, risk and timing. Below is what my Thesis was for my BS called “Playing the Game Called Management” Got an “A” by the way and inducted into the tech honors society. But that’s another story. The Question There are things we need to establish to try to fix things. One was recognizing the causes of which we already mentioned in the email. In chess that’s viewing the board and the player the environment all causes to the end games all potentially harmful and none of it on your side. This is handled in PM by openly set the goals and make sure that they are understood. In chess that is to yourself in PM that is to the group. This would not be to re-write the project by this date. That’s not a goal, that’s a want/need. It means to lay out what are the real goals for each party (to look good, make money, do the job and go home, do a good job, learn etc.). This is kind of dirty but so is detoxing after a bad drug habit...

...is how I can connect with the audience. I do this first because I feel that any audience member should feel a connection between them and the speaker whether or not they agree or disagree with the speaker. And the way I display this connection with the audience is through the types of immediacy such as verbal immediacy, nonverbal immediacy, technological influences on immediacy, and cultural influences on immediacy. In my first speech of the class, Any Old Bag Speech, I focused on getting the audience to me and like me for who I am. When I watched the speech on acclaim I realized that I used a form of verbal immediacy. Verbal immediacy directly relates to judgments of a speaker’s competence and character and includes the use of personal examples, humor, addressing others by first name and asking questions that solicit viewpoints or opinions. Using humor and personal examples in the speech certainly helped me relax because I could tell the audience was enjoying my speech instead of nodding off due to boredom. It also gave me confidence in my ability to speak in front of people, which is one of the main purposes of this course. My informative speech was a bit of struggle trying to find the connection with audience because the topic I chose. I could tell by the way that some of the audience were sitting that I was lacking immediacy. The nonverbal immediacy, which describes nonverbal behaviors that communicate liking, a positive evaluation of others, or positive affect to others...

...McShane Case Study 4.1 1. Each one of the medical staff has different ways of dealing with the stress that they have to deal with. Each has found their own way of dealing with the emotions that go along with a position that deals with patients that need that extra emotional support. They accomplish their emotions by focusing on the task at hand which is taking care of the patient and letting them know that they are there for them to help them both mentally and physically. Most medical staff employees, who deal with the type of trauma that these three individuals deal with every day, have to find their own way to deal with their emotions. You can’t go to work and look at your patients and show emotions, because those patients rely on you for support to help get them through every day by knowing that you are there for them. I believe that they do effectively manage their emotions, because none of them show their emotions in front of their patients. I know from experience that if you are someone who shows emotions easily and a situation arises and your emotions come out, it can make the situation difficult to get through. They keep their emotions to themselves and then let them out when they are not around the patients. People feel off of other people’s emotions, so you have to learn to separate your emotions. 3. Stress occurs when situations arise that challenges or threatens you and you have to find ways to handle those situations. Stress is something that can occur at...

...Violence can be justifiable in some situations like self defence or a martial art. It should in any way be used as a killing tool but only to get yourself out of a bad situation. Violence should never be used in any way of using it to get things you want or force people to do anything or use it to solve a problem or crisis. There is always other options to sort out the situation, In the movie The Hurricane, Rubin Carter never used violence to get what he wanted. Rubin only used violence when he was about to be dropped off the edge of a cliff into a rock death, he used it to protect himself but he would never kill a man. Violence should not in any way be used to solve any problems at all just as seen in World War 2 when thousands of people died when it could have been easily been changed and would have never occurred, if the hierarchy had sat in a meeting and discussed and reached an outcome of a way around several thousands of men camped out to kill the other men in their trenches. the hierarchies did not change their ways and it happened again in World War 2. I think that defending your country is a great thing to do but sending out a man to kill and get revenge on another country is unacceptable. Violence is definitely acceptable in self defence or to defend your family and friends but it is completely unacceptable to use it to kill. If someone comes into your house and holds hostage a family member, you can't stop and ask or discuss violent matters. Violence should be...

...in the opening chapter of the novel; he is presented as an almost ephemeral, ghost like figure. However we are drawn to his character by the way he is described: ‘There was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life’. Consequently, Every time he is mentioned there is always something to interrupt which adds to the mysteriousness of his character. At the end of chapter 1 we catch a glimpse of him where he is bonded with strong romantic imagery, he comes out to see ‘the silver pepper of the stars’ and is spotted when ‘the silhouette of a moving cat wavered across the moonlight’. Fitzgerald combines the purity and romance of Gatsby’s dream with these symbols. On the contrary when he gives a ‘sudden imitation that he was content to be alone’ by stretching out his arms towards the ‘dark water in a curious way’ the purity of his character seems to disappear as the ‘single green light, minute and far away’ suggests the ill omen of his character. In Chapter 3 Fitzgerald uses the part scene to introduce Gatsby to the reader, here Gatsby emerges as a mysterious character who is the subject of gossip, He is well known but ironically nobody seems to have any verifiable information about him. Nick then describes him and says ‘he had one of those rare smiles with a quality of eternal reassurance in it’ the way Gatsby us portrayed is one of extreme modesty, he appears to be the perfect gentleman. However he keeps a distance from his guests which makes...

...had to watch Reruns of Three’s Company just to learn the English language. Kim was facing something more then just fitting in and learning the English language she was facing poverty and never knew how to. She had a rich girls soul and can’t handle being poor. In my opinion Kim wrote this essay wanting to explain her struggle and how she faced poverty when coming from so much. She wanted those who are going through what she went through feel better about change. She showed it is light at the end of the tunnel and that what those people are going through she went through it so they aren’t alone. To change people ways showing them those who aren’t familiar with different countries and are new to certain things help them instead of giving them their back. Kim explained her story with a settled tone but used pain to help make her essay loud. She was hurt by the way things changed and how to tried to fit in but her soul was somewhere else. She couldn’t watch her mother and father struggle when they had everything. I can’t say I can relate to Kim because I wasn’t rich and moved to a different country but I can say I understand. When I moved to Arizona everyone welcomed us with open arms but I was teased because my accent was different from others. When I moved to Maryland I was in the third grade and again teased for having a...
