Connecting the Printer
If you have a PC, it is possible to connect to your printer via the parallel or
USB interface. Macintosh can only be connected via the USB interface.
Depending upon your geographic location, you may have to acquire the
appropriate cable. See "Options and Consumable Products" in the Daily Use
guide for details.
Note:
In order to connect your PC via the USB interface, your computer must be a
Windows 98 preinstalled model which is equipped with a USB port.
Using a parallel interface for PCs
To connect the printer to your PC, you need a shielded, twisted-pair parallel
cable.
1.
Make sure both the printer and computer are turned off.
2.
Plug the cable connector securely into the printer's interface connector.
Then squeeze the wire clips together until they lock in place on both
sides. If your cable has a ground wire, connect it to the ground connector
below the interface connector.
3.
Plug the other end of the cable into the computer's parallel interface. If
there is a ground wire at the computer end of the cable, connect it to the
ground connector at the back of the computer.
