SETTING UP FOR PRINTING

Printing requires installation of a printer driver for
your operating system.

See “Printer Drivers for Your Printer” in the
“Operating Instructions”.

CONNECTING THE PRINTER TO A
COMPUTER

Connect the printer to your computer using a
parallel port.

Important

The parallel interface cable is not provided with

the printer. It is your responsibility to provide the
interface cable appropriate for the computer that
you are using.

The printer’s parallel connection is a standard bi-

directional interface. It requires a standard 36-pin
parallel cable compliant with IEEE1284 and a
parallel port available on your computer.

To avoid electrical interference, use the shielded

cable.

Note

Do not use a parallel cable more than 2.5 meters

(8.2 feet) long.

Turn off the printer’s power switch.

Turn your computer off.

Attach the interface cable to the interface
connector of the printer. Secure the cable with
the metal fittings as shown in the illustration.

Attach the other end of the interface cable to the
interface connector of the computer. Secure the
cable.
