Connecting to your computer 15
For an IBM-compatible personal computer:
✓ Use a standard 36-pin Centronics parallel cable.
✓ The parallel cable should be no longer than six feet (two meters). Longer
cables can result in poor transfer of information.
Important!
Make sure that the printer and the computer are turned off before connecting
them.
❏ Plug one end of the parallel cable into the parallel port of your computer.
The parallel port should be labeled “Printer,” “Parallel,” “PRN,” “LPT1,” or
something similar.
❏ Plug the other end of the parallel cable into the socket on the side of the
printer and secure it in place with the clips.
Note:
Consult your dealer for details on how to set up your computer when using the
optional SPC-8K serial-to-parallel interface converter.
