Your printer is equipped with a selection of data interfaces:
1. Parallel – For direct connection to a PC. This port
requires a bi-directional (IEEE 1384 compliant) parallel
cable.
2. USB – For connection to a PC running Windows 98 or
above (not Windows 95 upgraded to Windows 98) or
Macintosh. This port requires a cable conforming to USB
version 2.0 or above.
3. The operation of a printer is not assured if a USB-
compatible device is connected concurrently with other
USB-compatible machines.
4. When connecting multiple printers of the same type, they
appear as *****, ***** (2), ***** (3), etc. These
numbers depend on the order of connecting or turning on
each printer.
5. Serial – for direct connection to a device that uses serial
printing (available as an option). Note: cannot be used
with the Ethernet card.
6. Ethernet – For network cable connection; standard on
network models. (available as an option on non-network
models)
7. If you are connecting your printer directly to a
standalone computer proceed to the chapter entitled
"Printer Drivers."
If your printer is to be installed as a network printer, please
refer to the User's Guide for the network interface card for
further details on how to configure the network connection
before installing the printer drivers.
NOTE: Administrator's authority is required when installing a
network connection.
