you to easily install the printer software, but some printers require separate driver software installation. See the
instructions that accompanied your printer for more information.
To connect a parallel port printer

Controls and Ports" in the "Setting Up" chapter of your printed VAIO ® Computer Quick Start.
2. Plug the other end of the printer cable into the port on the printer.
3. Restart your computer by clicking Start, Shut Down, and Restart. If the New Hardware Wizard appears, follow
the on-screen instructions.
