Left Side Panel
There are two connectors and a slide switch on the left side panel of the computer, as illustrated and
described below.
Caution: Connections and settings made on the left side of the computer must be done with the
power off.

Parallel (Printer) Port

You can connect a printer or other device that uses a standard Centronics parallel interface to the TravelMate
2000 via the supplied conversion adaptor. The cable from the printer or other device must terminate in a 25-
pin IBM-PC-style male connector to connect to this port. Specifications for this connector are given in
Appendix H.
Note: A dust cap is provided for the parallel port. Remove and store this cap in the slot in the underside
of the conversion adaptor while the parallel port is in use, and replace the cap when the parallel port is not
in use.
