IEEE-1284 cables support all of the
printer’s advanced functions.

Make sure power is off.
1 Locate the interface cable door ( A ) at
the back of the printer. Pull the door
out using the finger tab for leverage.
2 If using a parallel cable with a large
B-type end, connect the cable into
port (
B ). Snap the wire clips in place
to secure the cable to the printer.
If using a parallel cable with a small
C-type end, connect the cable into
port (
C ).
The cables should install easily. If
installation is difficult, check the
cable orientation.
3 Replace the interface cable door
while allowing the cable to feed
through its appropriate hole.
4 Connect the other end of the cable to
the proper connector on the computer.
