EXTERNAL DEVICES
You can connect external devices like parallel and serial
printers, a keyboard, monitor, or mouse to your Versa P.
TIP: Be sure you have set up the external device
correctly before connecting it to your system. Follow
the setup instructions that came with the device.
Parallel Devices
To install a parallel device, you need a cable with a male
25-pin connector for the system and, for most parallel print-
ers, a CentronicsĀ®-compatible 36-pin connector.
NOTE: Before you connect a printer, be sure you
have installed the appropriate printer driver through
the Windows Control Panel.
To connect a parallel device to your Versa P, do the
following.
1. Check that both the Versa and device power are off.
2. Open the left-rear cover of the system and locate the
printer port.
3. Align and connect the 25-pin printer cable connector to
the parallel port on the system. (The parallel printer port
is the fourth from the left.) Secure the cable with the
screws provided.
