Connecting The Printer To Your Computer; The Parallel Interface - Epson LQ-850 User Manual

The parallel interface

When connecting your computer to the parallel interface, follow
these steps:
1. Make sure both the printer and your computer are turned off.
2. Plug the cable connector into the printer as shown below. Next
squeeze the wire clips together until they lock onto either side of
the connector.
If your cable has a ground wire, attach this wire to the ground
connector of the printer.
3. Plug the other end of the interface cable into the computer. (If
there is a ground wire at the computer end of the cable, attach
it to the ground connector at the back of the computer.)
