INTERFACES
Your printer is equipped with a selection of data interfaces:
1. Parallel – (not available on the B4100) For direct connection to a
PC. This port requires a bi-directional (IEEE 1384 compliant)
parallel cable.
2. USB – For connection to a PC running Windows 98 or above (not
Windows 95 upgraded to Windows 98) or Macintosh. This port
requires a cable conforming to USB version 1.1 or above.
The operation of a printer is not assured if a USB-compatible
device is connected concurrently with other USB-compatible
machines.
When connecting multiple printers of the same type, they appear
as *****, ***** (2), ***** (3), etc. These numbers depend on the
order of connecting or turning on each printer.
3. Serial – for direct connection to a device that uses serial printing
(available as an option only on the B4350, and B4350n). Note:
cannot be used with the Ethernet card.
4. Ethernet – For network cable connection; standard on the
B4350n. (available as an option on the B4350)
5. If you are connecting your printer directly to a standalone
computer proceed to the chapter entitled “Printer Drivers.”
If your printer is to be installed as a network printer, please refer to the
User’s Guide for the network interface card for further details on how to
configure the network connection before installing the printer drivers.
