Parallel cable connection

In addition to receiving print jobs over Ethernet and Token Ring, the DocuColor can
accept print jobs from a Windows computer through its high-speed parallel port. This
connection is advantageous for portable computers and for workstations that use
dedicated networks using protocols other than TCP/IP or IPX.
The parallel port connection is active at the same time as the network ports.

O USE PARALLEL CABLE
