Connecting the 4400 to a PC

You can connect the 4400 to either a serial port or parallel port (if you have the
option installed) on your PC. You must provide the correct cables for
connecting the printer. Refer to the following instructions for cable information.
Contact your Intermec representative for ordering assistance if you do not have
the appropriate cables.

Connecting the Printer to a PC Serial Port

It must have pins on the printer end and an appropriate serial port connector
on the other end.
