Connecting the Printer to Your Computer

Your printer has two separate interface connections: an IEEE-1284 compatible parallel interface and Type B optional interface. See “Optional interface cards” on page A-4for more information.

If your computer requires a different type of printer interface, you should be able to use one of the optional interfaces described on “Optional interface cards” on page A-4.

Follow the steps below to connect the printer to your computer using a parallel interface connector, or a ground wire connector.

1.Make sure both the printer and computer are turned off.

2.Plug the cable connector securely into the parallel interface connector.
