Connecting a parallel cable

Use a parallel cable if you want to connect the printer directly to a computer.

To ensure reliability, use an IEEE-1284 bidirectional C-type parallel cable. These cables are clearly marked with “IEEE-1284.” Only IEEE- 1284 cables support all of the advanced printer features.

To connect a parallel cable

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

2Connect the parallel cable to the printer parallel port. Press the

locking release levers while connecting the cable.

Note

If installing the cable is difficult, make sure you have the correct cable.

3Connect the other end of the cable to the proper connector on the computer.
