Connecting the Printer to Your Computer
Your printer includes both a Centronics
®
-compatible parallel
interface and an EIA-232D serial interface. Before you begin, place
the printer upright, as shown below. (This makes it easier to
connect the cable.)
Connect your computer to the desired interface as described
below.
You can connect a cable to both interfaces; the printer switches
automatically to the appropriate interface when it receives data.
Using the parallel interface
You need a shielded, twisted-pair cable (not longer than
2 meters—6 feet) to use the parallel interface.
