1 Installation Step 4: Connecting the Parallel Cable You will need to connect a parallel cable (purchased separately) between your HP LaserJet 6L Printer and Companion. Note For best results, it is imperative that you use a high-quality IEEE-1284 compliant parallel cable, such as the HP LaserJet cable, between the printer and computer. This cable supports all of your printer's advanced printing capabilities. If you experience problems with your computer not being recognized by your printer, you may have a faulty cable. 1 Connect a parallel cable to your printer. Be sure not to force the cable on upside down. 2 Secure the cable by snapping the two wire clips from the printer to the cable. A secure cable helps prevent communication problems between the computer and printer. The HP LaserJet Companion connects between your computer and your printer. 3 Plug the opposite end of the parallel cable into the To Printer Connector on the HP LaserJet Companion. Caution If the cable does not attach easily, make sure that you are using the correct cable and plugging in the correct end. Forcing the plug into the connection can cause damage. EN Set Up 1-9

Step 4: Connecting the
Parallel Cable
You will need to connect a parallel cable
(purchased separately) between your HP
LaserJet 6L Printer and Companion.
Note
For best results, it is imperative that you
use a high-quality IEEE-1284 compliant
parallel cable, such as the HP LaserJet
cable, between the printer and computer.
This cable supports all of your printer’s
advanced printing capabilities. If you
experience problems with your computer
not being recognized by your printer, you
may have a faulty cable.
1
Connect a parallel cable to your
printer. Be sure not to force the cable
on upside down.
2
Secure the cable by snapping the two
wire clips from the printer to the
cable. A secure cable helps prevent
communication problems between
the computer and printer.
The HP LaserJet Companion connects
between your computer and your printer.
3
Plug the opposite end of the parallel
cable into the To Printer Connector
on the HP LaserJet Companion.
Caution
If the cable does not attach easily, make
sure that you are using the correct cable
and plugging in the correct end. Forcing
the plug into the connection can cause
damage.
