Connecting the Prin ter to Your Computer
Use an interface cable with a 36-pin connector on the printer end,
and a connector that will work with your computer on the other
end. See your computer’s reference guide for the required
connector type. Follow these steps t o connect the printer to your
computer:
1. Make sure both the printer and comput er are turned off.
2. Plug the cable connector securely into the printer’s parallel
interface connector. Squeeze the wire clips together until they
lock in place on both sides of the connector.
Note:
If your cable has a ground wire, connect it to the ground connector
beneath the interface connector.
3. Plug the other end of the cable into the computer. (If there is a
ground wire at the computer end of the cable, attach it to the
ground connector at the back of the compute r.)
