Communications test and two-way
communications
The printer software tests the communication between your computer
and your printer and tells you if you have two-way communication.
Two-way communication allows communication between your printer
and the computer and gives you access to all the features of your
HP Deskjet printer. The cable between your printer and computer
must be bidirectional to allow two-way communication– the HP IEEE-
1284-compliant Parallel Interface Cable (C2950A) is best. If you do not
have two-way communication, your printer cannot send messages to
the computer. However, you can still print.
