directly to the parallel port of your computer.

If the printer stops while printing from a DOS application and an
error message appears on your computer screen, check that you
have included the correct Mode command in your computer’s
AUTOEXEC.BAT file.

Replace “LPT1” in the Mode command with the correct port if
necessary.
