software and/or which of your computer's interface ports are available for use.
Use a Centronics-compatible parallel cable, serial cable, or USB cable in accordance with the connection
method chosen. Obtain a Graphtec approved interface cable that is compatible with the interface ports (the
interface cables are available separately).
