Connecting the printer to your computer
Connect the printer to your computer using a standard parallel interface
cable. On a PC or PC/AT-type computer, this means that you use the 25-pin
D-type connector at the computer end, and the Amphenol-type 36pin con-
nector at the printer end. The configuration of the printer's connector is
given in Chapter 8 should you need a cable for connection to another
computer.
If you need to connect to a serial port, use the optional Serial-Parallel con-
verter, SPC-8K.

switch at the front of the printer yet.
NOTE:To disconnect the printer the plug has to be disconnected from the
wall socket, which has to be located close to the printer, and easy to
access.
