white paper

More Optical Mouse Functionality

• Don’t know if you have an optical mouse? Turn the mouse over:

An optical mouse has a red laser on the bottom. The laser needs to be on a dark surface for the mouse to work properly

A ball mouse will work on any color surface. However, if the ball gets dirty, it will stop working correctly
