privileges are necessary for Windows 2000 and Windows XP installations.

This port requires a cable conforming to USB version 1.1 or above. A genuine cable displays the Trident symbol on both connectors.

Using an inferior cable can cause printing problems and special cables are needed for longer runs than five metres.

The operation of a printer is not assured if a USB compatible device is connected concurrently with other USB compatible machines.

When connecting multiple printers of the same type, they appear as *****, ***** (2), ***** (3), etc. These numbers depend on the order of connecting or turning on each printer.
