www.dell.com/supplies | support.dell.com A local printer is a printer attached to your computer using a USB or parallel cable. If your printer is attached to a network instead of your computer, skip this step and go on to "Setting up for network printing" on page 55. All Microsoft® Windows® operating systems support parallel connections. However, only the Windows 98 SE, Windows Me, Windows 2000, and Windows XP operating systems support USB connections. Some UNIX® and Linux computers also support USB connections. Refer to your computer operating system documentation to see if your system supports USB. To attach the printer to a computer: 1 Make sure the printer, computer, and any other attached devices are turned off and unplugged. 2 Connect the printer to the computer using a USB or parallel cable, but do not use both. • A USB port requires a USB cable. Be sure to match the USB symbol on the cable to the USB symbol on the printer. Plug the other end of the cable into a USB port on the back of the computer, not the USB keyboard. • A parallel port requires an IEEE-1284 compliant parallel cable.
