Setting-Up
Connecting to a Computer
Important
• You must purchase an IEEE 1284 type-B cable. If you try to use any
other cable, you may damage the printer's port.
Note
• Always use a shielded interface cable. Use of an unshielded cable can
result in radio interference with data.
1
Make sure that the printer and the computer you are connecting it
to are both turned off.
2
Connect one end of the cable to the parallel port of the computer.
3
Connect the other end of the cable to the parallel interface con-
nector on the back of the printer. Secure the cable using the two
clips on the parallel interface connector.
See page 9-3 of this User's Manual for cable specifications.
