Connecting the interface cable
Connect the printer to your computer using a standard Centronics parallel interface cable.
On a PS/2 or PC/AT-type computer, this means that you use the 25-pin D-type connector
at the computer end, and the Amphenol-type 36-pin connector at the printer end. The
configuration of the printer's connector is given in Chapter 10 should you need a cable for
connecting to another computer.
