NOTES:

You only need to connect one of the cables mentioned above. Do not use the parallel and the USB cables at the same time.

If you are using a USB cable, you must be running Windows 98/ Me/2000/XP.

When using the USB connection, your machine provides two USB modes; Fast and Slow. Fast is the default mode. Some PC users may experience poor USB function in the default mode. If this occurs, select the Slow mode to achieve successful results. For details about changing the USB mode, see page 8.17.
