Connecting a Parallel Printer
1 Complete the operating system setup, if you have not already done so.
2 Shut down the computer (see "Turning Off Your Computer" on page 27).
NOTICE:
For best results, use a 3-m (10-ft) or shorter parallel cable.
3 Attach the parallel printer cable to the parallel connector on the computer and tighten the
two screws. Attach the cable to the connector on the printer and snap the two clips into the
two notches.
4 Turn on the printer and then turn on the computer. If the Add New Hardware Wizard
window appears, click Cancel.
5 Install the printer driver if necessary. See the documentation that came with your printer.
