Your printer is equipped with a selection of data interfaces:

4.

Parallel – For direct connection to a PC. This port requires a bi-directional (IEEE 1284 compliant) parallel cable.

USB – For connection to a PC running Windows 98 or above (not Windows 95 upgraded to Windows 98) or

Macintosh. This port requires a cable conforming to USB version 2.0 or above.

The operation of a printer is not assured if a USB compatible device is connected concurrently with other

USB-compatible machines.

When connecting multiple printers of the same type, they appear as *****, ***** (2), ***** (3), etc. These numbers depend on the order of connecting or turning on each printer.

Serial – for direct connection to a device that uses serial printing (available as an option).

Ethernet – For network cable connection (available as an option).

NOTE

> It is not recommended that you connect serial/USB and parallel cables to the printer simultaneously.

If you are connecting your printer directly to a stand alone computer proceed to the chapter entitled “Printer Drivers”.

If your printer is to be installed as a network printer, please refer to the relevant section in the User’s Guide for the network interface card for further details on how to configure the network connection before installing the printer drivers.
