CHAPTER 4: Using Drives and Accessories 4 Eject the PC Card by pressing the eject button again. Using an optional port replicator Although you can attach devices directly to your convertible notebook, a port replicator lets you make all of those connections at one time. When you travel with your convertible notebook, you merely disconnect from the port replicator instead of unplugging all the devices. A port replicator also provides additional ports and other expansion features not included with your convertible notebook. For more information about using a port replicator, see the port replicator user guide. Installing a printer or other peripheral device Your convertible notebook or optional port replicator has one or more of the following ports: IEEE 1394 (also known as Firewire® or i.Link®) and Universal Serial Bus (USB). You use these ports to connect peripheral devices such as printers, scanners, and digital cameras to your convertible notebook. Important Before you install a printer, scanner, or other peripheral device, see the device documentation and installation instructions. 54
