Add-On Devices Connecting External Devices To connect a printer or other parallel device The notebook's parallel port uses a standard 25-pin connector, most commonly used for connecting dot-matrix, ink-jet, and laser printers. • Connect the device's parallel cable to the notebook's parallel port (colored burgundy). To connect an external keyboard or mouse Note • Plug a USB mouse or keyboard into a USB port on the notebook. In addition, if you dock the notebook in the optional port replicator, you can also connect a PS/2 keyboard or PS/2 mouse. The notebook's touch pad and scroll pad are automatically disabled when the notebook is docked in a port replicator with a PS/2 mouse connected. Note USB keyboards do not support Fn hot keys. To connect a USB device Note The universal serial buses (USB) on the notebook provide a bi-directional serial interface for adding peripheral devices such as a mouse, keyboard, floppy drive, printer, scanner, or game controller on a single bus. USB-to-serial and USB-to-parallel port adapters are also available. • Attach the device's USB cable to a USB port. Windows automatically recognizes the USB device. Some USB devices can be connected to the notebook in series (called a daisy-chain connection). If you have problems making this connection, contact the device manufacturer and the HP Business Support web site (www.hp.com/go/bizsupport) for the latest version of the driver for the device. 82 Reference Guide
