Step 3 - Connect the Cables

Note: The cable that connects the printer to the computer is not supplied with the printer. You will need to purchase a parallel cable. HP recommends a high-quality IEEE-1284 compliant parallel printer cable (HP part number C2950A or C2951A).

1 Turn the computer off.

2 Connect one end of the printer cable to the parallel port on the back of the printer and snap both clips onto the notches of the connector.

3 Connect the other end of the printer cable to the parallel port on the back of the computer and tighten the screws on the connector.

Note:

Do not share the parallel port with a Zip drive or scanner.

4 Plug the power cord into the printer and then into a grounded outlet.
