Connecting Parallel Cable
To ensure reliability, use an IEEE-1284
bi-directional parallel cable. (These
cables are clearly marked with
“IEEE-1284.”) Only IEEE-1284 cables
support all of the printer’s advanced
features.
Caution
Make sure the printer is turned off.
1
Connect the parallel cable to the
parallel port.
2
Snap the wire clips in place to
secure the cable to the printer.
The cable should install easily. If
installation is difficult, check the
cable orientation.
3
Connect the other end of the cable
to the proper connector on the
computer.
Note
See the printer user’s guide for
information on ordering a two or three
meter IEEE-1284 parallel cable.
