Section 4: Using FotoFUN! for Windows

A. CONNECTING FotoFUN! TO YOUR COMPUTER

FotoFUN! is designed to be used with nearly any IBM-PC¨or compatible running Windows 3.1x or Windows 95. For best performance, a minimum of a 486/66 computer with 8Mb of RAM or higher is recommended.

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

NOTE You may experience printing problems if your computer’s parallel port mode is set to ECP. For best results, 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.
