Setting up your computer and getting started 25 Connecting a printer Your printer documentation may require you to install the printer software before physically connecting the printer to your computer. If you do not install the software as instructed by the printer manufacturer, the printer may not function correctly. Read the documentation that came with your printer. Follow the manufacturer's instructions when connecting a printer. You can connect a USB-compatible printer to your computer through one of the USB ports. To determine if the printer is USB-compatible, check its documentation. To make the connection, you need a suitable USB cable, which may come with your printer. If a USB cable was not included with your printer, you can purchase one from a computer or electronics store. If your printer supports Plug and Play, your computer will automatically recognize the printer; the printer is then ready for use. Refer to your printer documentation for further instructions. TECHNICAL NOTE: To determine if your printer supports Plug and Play, check its documentation. If your printer does not support Plug and Play, you must set up the printer as described in "Setting up a printer" in the electronic user's guide. To connect a USB printer to your computer: 1 Connect the printer cable to the printer and then connect the other end to one of the computer's USB ports. 2 Plug the printer's power cable into a live electrical outlet. See your printer documentation for additional configuration steps, or see "Setting up a printer" in the electronic user's guide. 5.375 x 8.375 ver 3.1
