Connecting to a USB Interface

You can connect the machine to a computer with a USB port via a USB cable. The machine is USB 2.0 Hi-Speed compatible.
The drivers, and utility that matches the operating system on your computer will be installed. For more information on
installing the driver through a USB connection, see Chapter 12, "Before Printing from Computers," or Chapter 13, "Before
Sending Faxes from Computers." For information on installing a utility, see the manuals provided with the utility.
If you connect or disconnect the USB cable while the machine's main power switch is ON, do not touch the metal parts around
the connector, as this may result in electrical shock .

If you disconnect the USB cable with the computer or machine's main power switch ON, always wait at least five seconds before
reconnecting the cable. Immediately reconnecting the cable may cause your computer or machine to operate poorly.

If you connect the machine to a computer via a USB cable, confirm that [Use USB Device] (in the USB Settings screen) is set to 'On' . (See
