Connecting the Computer
The UP-D2600 connects to the Windows computer via the parallel interface.
Before connecting the computer, see "Important safeguards/notices for use in the
medical environments" on page 2.
Notes
• Turn off the power of each device before attempting to make any connections.
• Grab the connector at the end of the connecting cable, and firmly insert it into the
socket.
• Use the shielded cable that should be less than 3 meters and conforms to the
parallel specification, as the printer cable.
• To use the printer in ECP mode, use an interface cable in conformity to IEEE Std
1284.

Operation
Before Printing
This section describes the following operations that must be made prior to starting
printing after mounting the paper tray and paper cover on the printer and making
the necessary connections.
• Loading an ink ribbon cartridge (see the below)
• Loading paper (see page 16)
Once the above operations have been completed, there should be no need to repeat
them during routine printing. Perform them only when absolutely necessary.
Loading an Ink Ribbon Cartridge
To make printouts, an ink ribbon cartridge and paper (which are compatible) must
be loaded. (see "Ink Ribbon Cartridge and Paper" page 20)
Use the ink ribbon cartridge and print paper (supplied) to check if the printer
functions properly.
Notes
• Use only ink ribbon cartridge and paper that are designed for use with this
printer. Failing to do so is likely to result in unsatisfactory printing or
malfunctions.
• When you replace the ink ribbon cartridge while you are operating the printer, do
not turn off the printer power. Turning off the power will cause the image stored
in the memory to be lost.
