Connecting to the Parallel Interface, If there is ground wire at the, end of the cable

Page 30 highlights

Connecting to the parallel interface You need a shielded, twisted-pair cable (not longer than 2 meters-6 feet) to use the parallel interface. 1. Turn off both the computer and the printer. Plug the parallel cable connector securely into the printer's parallel interface. Squeeze the wire clips together until they lock in place on either side of the connector. 2. Guide the interface cable through the slot on the side of the printer as shown in the illustration on page 1-16 so that it does not block the paper supply. Note: If there is ground wire at the end of the cable, attach it to the ground connector to the right of the interface as shown in the illustration on page 1-15. 3. Plug the other end of the cable into the computer's parallel interface. (If there is a ground wire at the end of the cable, attach it to the ground connector at the back of the computer.) 1-14 Setting Up the Printer

Connecting to the parallel interface
You need a shielded, twisted-pair cable (not longer than
2 meters-6 feet) to use the parallel interface.
1.
Turn off both the computer and the printer. Plug the parallel
cable connector securely into the printer’s parallel interface.
Squeeze the wire clips together until they lock in place on
either side of the connector.
2.
Guide the interface cable through the slot on the side of the
printer as shown in the illustration on page 1-16 so that it
does not block the paper supply.
Note:
If there is ground wire at the
end of the cable, attach it to the
ground connector to the right of the interface as shown in the
illustration on page 1-15.
3.
Plug the other end of the cable into the computer’s parallel
interface. (If there is a ground wire at the end of the cable,
attach it to the ground connector at the back of the
computer.)
