The one marked " " is for a parallel (Centronics standard) interface. The one marked
"IOIOI" is for a serial (RS-232C/RS-422A) interface. You may use whichever is convenient
for your computer, with the option interface, if you have already have one installed. All
interface connectors can be used simultaneously with different computers.
☛ Only connect or disconnect cables to the connectors while the printer and computer
power are switched off.
Parallel interface

marked Parallel on the printer. Close the clips on
both sides to hold it in place.
Plug the other end into a parallel (Centronics)
