Note

❒Consult your network administrator before connecting the printer to a net- work.

❒In a 100BASE-TX environment, be sure to use properly shielded and ground- ed cable (STP, Category/Type 5) for the connection to the host computer (and/or HUB) in order to meet FCC and EMC Directive 89/336/EEC emis- sion guidelines.

Parallel cable

Connect the printer to the host computer parallel port. A parallel cable to con- nect the printer to the host computer is not included with this printer.

The printer's parallel interface is a standard bidirectional interface. It requires a standard 36-pin parallel cable compliant with IEEE 1284 and a parallel port available on the host computer.

Note

❒Do not use a parallel cable that is longer than 3 meters (10 feet).

Connecting the Printer to the Network

Follow these steps to connect the printer to the network via its built in network interface.

A Confirm that you have the correct network cable.

B Turn off the printer.

C Loop the network cable twice. The loops should be about 10 cm (4 inch) from the end of the cable on the end closest to the connector.
