Section 3: Using the CD Color Printer III with Windows

A. CONNECTING THE PRINTER TO YOUR COMPUTER

The CD Color Printer III is designed to be used with nearly any IBM-PC®or compatible running Windows NT/2000, or Windows 95/98.

The printer is equipped with a standard 8-bit Centronics-type parallel port. This port is the means through which it receives data from your computer. To connect the printer to your computer, simply obtain a shielded, bi-directional parallel cable, and refer to the following steps:

NOTE: For faster printing, your computer’s parallel port mode should be set to ECP. If you experience problems with this setting or if your computer’s parallel port is not ECP compatible, set your computer’s parallel port to the standard “Printer Port” setting. Refer to your computer’s system documentation for instructions on checking and/or changing the parallel port mode.

1.Connect the Centronics-type parallel side of the cable to the printer. Snap the fastening clips into place.

2.Connect the other side to the back of your computer at LPT1, LPT2, or the PARALLEL connector.
