Connecting the MultiPASS C70 to Your PC
Your MultiPASS C70 has an 8-bit, bi-directional parallel interface port
that allows you to connect it to your PC. You can purchase a
Centronics
®
-compatible parallel cable with bi-directional capability from
your Canon dealer or any computer store. Make sure the cable is IEEE
1284-compliant.
n
For best results, use a cable that is no longer than 2 metres.
Connect the MultiPASS C70 to your PC as follows:
1. Make sure your PC is turned off and the MultiPASS C70 is
unplugged.
2. Align the cable connector with the parallel interface port so their
shapes match.
3. Gently press the cable connector into the port.
4. Secure the cable connector by snapping both wire clips (on the sides
of the port) into the cable connector.
