To connect your printer to your PC with the USB cable
• Connect the USB cable to the connector on the back of the printer
and connect the other end to your PC. You do not need to set up
any parameters for USB communications.
To connect your printer to your PC through the parallel device port,
you need to install Intermec InterDriver software and connect the
cable to your PC.
If you ordered a PF8 with a parallel port, the parallel cable ships with
the printer. The InterDriver printer driver is available on the
PrinterCompanion CD that ships with the printer. To make sure you
have the latest version of InterDriver, go to the PF8 Downloads page
on the Intermec web site at www.intermec.com.
Note: The PF8d with internal Ethernet support does not have a
parallel port.
