Connecting a Parallel Printer
You can connect a parallel port printer to your port replicator if your computer came with one. The new hardware wizard
enables 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.
The printer port on this port replicator is intended for printer connections only.
The port replicator must use power from the AC adapter in order to provide parallel port printer connection. Do not use
battery power when connecting a printer.
