Connecting external devices
Connecting external devices to the USB port
You can connect a wide range of external devices to the USB port (e.g. printer, scanner, modem or
keyboard).
Devices with USB interfaces are hot-pluggable. This allows cables from those devices to
i
be connected and disconnected with the system switched on.
Additional information can be found in the documentation for the corresponding devices.

Device drivers

The devices you connect to the USB port usually require no driver of their own, as the
required software is already included in the operating system. However, if the device
requires its own software, please install it from the data carrier provided with the device.
