For an IBM-compatible personal computer:
Use a standard 36-pin Centronics parallel cable.
The parallel cable should be no longer than six
feet (two meters). Longer cables can result in
poor transfer of information.
Important!
Make sure that the printer and the computer are
turned off before connecting them.
Plug one end of the parallel cable into the parallel
port of your computer. The parallel port should
be labeled "Printer," "Parallel," "PRN," "LPT1,"
or something similar.
Plug the other end of the parallel cable into the
socket on the side of the printer and secure it in
place with the clips.
Note:
Consult your dealer for details on how to set up your
computer when using the optional SPC-8K serial-to-
parallel interface converter or the IS-8H192 (or IS-
32H768) serial interface unit.
