Printer Setup

Did you know ...
Compaq registration must be
complete before you plug in
your printer and run the

Did you know ...
Most new computers have a
Universal Serial Bus (USB)
port for a new printer that
uses the latest technology.
Older printers, which plug
into a parallel port, cannot be
connected to a USB port. Your
printer may use a USB plug
(rather than a parallel
2
plug ) for installation. USB
is new technology on all
currently manufactured
computers.
