Getting Set Up 2

Connecting the printer to a single computer using LocalTalk

You can use LocalTalk connectors and cables to connect the printer directly to your computer, without connecting it to any other network.

Note If your network consists of a single Macintosh and printer and the cable you are using is not self-terminating, you need to terminate both ends of the network.

1.Turn the printer off before making any LocalTalk connections.

2.Connect the short cable of a LocalTalk connector to the printer’s LocalTalk port.

3.Connect the short cable of a second LocalTalk connector to your computer’s LocalTalk port.

4.Connect a LocalTalk cable between the two LocalTalk connectors you have just attached to your computer and your printer.
