Connecting The Printer; Using The Built-In Parallel Interface For Pcs; Using An Optional Interface Card - Epson Stylus Pro 7500 Startup Manual

Connecting the Printer

The method you use to connect the printer to your computer
depends on whether you want to send print jobs directly to the
printer using the printer's built-in parallel interface or a USB
connection, or send print jobs to the printer over a network using
an optional interface card. To connect the printer using the built-
in parallel interface, see the next section. To connect the printer
using a USB connection, see "Using a USB connection (For
Windows 98, Me, and 2000 only)" on page 1-3. For information
on using optional interface cards, see "Using an optional interface
card" on page 1-5.

Using the built-in parallel interface for PCs

To use the printer's built-in parallel interface, you will need a
shielded, twisted-pair cable. Follow the steps below to connect
the printer to your computer.
Note:
Before you connect the parallel interface cable, disconnect the USB cable
from the printer, if installed.
