5. Connecting

The computer sends data to the printer through a cable to the printer’s interface
(Serial Interface Connector Type: D-sub 25-pin or Parallel Interface Connector
Type: 36-pin Centronics compatible). This printer does not come with a cable, so
it is up to you to obtain one that suits your needs.

Important!
• The following instructions apply to the cable that is used with an IBM-

compatible personal computer. Note that they do not apply to all types of
computers and cables. If you are unsure about what type of cable you should use
to connect with your computer, consult your dealer.

• Make sure that the printer is turned off and unplugged from the AC outlet and

that the computer is turned off before connecting them.
