It re- quires a standard IEEE 1284 compli- ant 36-pin parallel cable and a parallel port on the host computer. Make sure you purchase the appropriate cable for the machine and your computer. Note ❒ Do not use a parallel cable that is longer than 3 meters (10 feet). ❒ Rating voltage of the interface connector: Max. DC 5V Follow the procedure below to connect the machine to the host computer using a parallel cable or IEEE 1394 interface cable. AEU002S ❖ IEEE 1394 (SCSI print) Connection Important ❒ Before connecting the machine and a computer using an interface cable, make sure the machine is not operating, and then turn off the main power switches of the machine and computer. ❒ Be sure to use a specified interface cable. Other cables may cause radio interference. AEU003S C Plug the other end of the cable into the connector on the computer's interface. D Turn on the machine's main pow- er switch. 12
