Attaching a Parallel Printer Cable

To ensure reliability use an IEEE-1284 compliant parallel cable (these cables are clearly marked with “IEEE-1284”). Only IEEE-1284 cables support all of the printer’s advanced functions.

Make sure power is off.

1 Locate the interface cable door (A) at the back of the printer. Pull the door out using the finger tab for leverage.

2 If using a parallel cable with a large B-type end, connect the cable into port (B). Snap the wire clips in place to secure the cable to the printer.

If using a parallel cable with a small C-type end, connect the cable into port (C).

The cables should install easily. If installation is difficult, check the cable orientation.

3 Replace the interface cable door while allowing the cable to feed through its appropriate hole.

4 Connect the other end of the cable to the proper connector on the computer.

Go to Step 7. Attach the Power Cord, on page 1-12.
