Changing the Printer Connection Method If you change the printer connection method from USB to parallel or vice versa while in use, you must re-configure your Linux printer by adding the printer in your system. Take the following steps: 1 Make sure that you connect the printer to your computer. Turn both the computer and the printer on. 2 When the Administrator Login window appears, type in "root" in the Login field and enter the system password. NOTE: You must log in as a super user (root) to install a new printer to the printing system. If you are not, ask your system administrator. 3 From the Startup Menu icon at the bottom of the desktop, select Linux Printer and then Configuration Tool. You can also access the Linux Printer Configuration window by typing in "linux-config" from the Terminal screen. 4 When the Linux Printer Configuration window appears, click the Add Printer icon on the tool bar at the top of the window. 5 Click the Connection tab at the top of the Add a Printer window. Ensure that the printer port is set properly. If not proper, change the device setting. 6 Click OK. C.6 USING YOUR PRINTER IN LINUX
