Connecting the Machine to the

host using the parallel cable/IEEE

1394 (SCSI print) cable

Connect the machine to the host com-
puter using the optional parallel
board or optional IEEE 1394 interface
board. This machine does not come
with a parallel cable to connect the
machine to the host computer.
The machine's parallel interface is a
standard bidirectional interface. It re-
quires a standard IEEE 1284 compli-
ant 36-pin parallel cable and a parallel
port on the host computer. Make sure
you purchase the appropriate cable
for the machine and your computer.
Note
Do not use a parallel cable that is
longer than 3 meters (10 feet).
Rating voltage of the interface con-
nector: Max. DC 5V
Follow the procedure below to con-
nect the machine to the host computer
using a parallel cable or IEEE 1394 in-
terface cable.
Important
Before connecting the machine and
a computer using an interface ca-
ble, make sure the machine is not
operating, and then turn off the
main power switches of the ma-
chine and computer.
Be sure to use a specified interface
cable. Other cables may cause ra-
dio interference.
