Printer Setup
After setting up and
registering your computer,
you are ready to set up your
printer.
A printer allows you to
print any document from
your My Presario—
Learning More CD, your
e-mail, and Web sites.
Most new computers have a
Universal Serial Bus (USB)
port for a new printer that
uses the latest technology.
Older printers, which plug
into a parallel port, cannot be
connected to a USB port. Your
printer may use a USB plug
1
(rather than a parallel
plug
2
) for installation.
