Connecting To The Computer; Parallel Interface For Pcs - Epson EPL-5700L Getting Ready

Connecting to the Computer

Your printer comes with two standard interface connectors,
parallel and USB.

Parallel interface for PCs

To connect the printer to your PC, you need a shielded, twisted-
pair parallel cable.
Note:
Windows 98, 95 and Windows NT 4.0 support the parallel interface.
1. Make sure both the printer and computer are turned off.
2. Plug the cable connector securely into the printer's interface
connector. Then squeeze the wire clips together until they lock
in place on both sides. If your cable has a ground wire, connect
it to the ground connector below the interface connector.
3. Plug the other end of the cable into the computer's parallel
interface. If there is a ground wire at the computer end of the
cable, connect it to the ground connector at the back of the
computer.
