Adding a Printer
The most commonly used peripheral is a printer. Most current printers have a
USB interface, however parallel interface printers are still very common. The
following conventions will help you to add a printer, but it is always best to
refer to the printer manual for specific instructions and configuration options.
You may use any of the USB ports, or the Parallel Port, on your computer to
connect an appropriate printer.
