2	Getting Started
	Connecting the Printer to Your Computer
	You can use the HP DeskJet 340 printer with a PC or a Macintosh
	computer.
	You need to make sure, however, that you have the correct printer
	cable for your computer.
	Use a parallel printer cable (the
	cable is not supplied with the
	printer) to connect the printer to
	a PC.
	Connect one end of the printer
	cable to the port on the side of
	the printer and the other end to
	the printer port of your PC.
	You must use the special Mac
	Adapter cable to connect the HP
	DeskJet 340 printer to your
	Macintosh computer.
	If the cable has not been
	packaged with your printer, you
	must purchase one from
	Hewlett-Packard or an Apple
	reseller (see “Supplies and
	Accessories,” for part numbers).
	Connect one end of the Mac Adapter cable to the printer and the
	other end to either a modem or printer port on the computer.
	Note
	You cannot connect the printer to an AppleTalk network.
