Connecting the printer to a Macintosh

To connect the printer, you need an Apple Peripheral-8 cable, part number M0197. The Apple Peripheral-8 cable has special shielding to reduce the possibility of causing interference to radios, television sets, and other electronic devices. If you do not have an Apple Peripheral-8 cable, you can obtain one from an authorized Apple dealer.

No matter which Macintosh you have, these icons identify the printer

and modem ports.

Press the cable firmly into this notch to secure it.

Choosing a port

Your Macintosh has a printer port (marked with the icon [) and a modem port (marked with the icon W). You can attach the printer cable to either of these ports.

If your computer is connected to a network, your printer port may already be connected to a network cable. If the printer port is unavailable, you can use the modem port.

SImportant: If your computer is not connected to a network, and you plug your printer cable into the printer port, you must make sure that AppleTalk is inactive in the Macintosh Chooser desk accessory. See “Using the Chooser the First Time You Print” in Chapter 3. S
