Checking the port connection

When the printer is directly connected via the PC cable and the data-in indicator does not flash or light up, the method of checking the port connection is as fol- lows.

For a parallel port connection, port LPT 1 or LPT 2 should be set.

For a USB port connection, port USB00 (n) *1 should be set.

*1 (n) is the number of printers connected.
