To connect a printer to the main unit, you need an IBM PC-
compatible printer cable with a 25-pin male D-connector on one end. If
you are not sure which cable you need, consult your Epson dealer. Once
you have a printer cable, follow these steps to connect your printer to the
parallel interface on the main unit:
1. Place the printer next to your system, as shown in Figure 1-9.
Figure 1-9. Printer placement
2. Before you connect the printer, be sure the power switches on both
the main unit and the monitor are off.
3. One end of the printer cable has a 25-pin male D-connector. (Refer to
your printer manual to determine which end this is.) Connect this
end to the socket marked PARALLEL on the back panel of the main
unit. If the plug has retaining screws, tighten them with a small
screwdriver.
4. Connect the other end of the cable to the printer. To secure the cable,
tighten the squeeze locks at each side of the printer port and push
them into the connectors on each side of the cable. Figure 1-10 shows
how to connect the cable to the printer.
