Astra 2000P Backpanel
There are two parallel ports on the Astra 2000P scanner. This
allows your printer and your scanner to communicate with your
computer using the parallel connector. The first parallel port is used
to connect the scanner to your computer. You attach your printer
cable to the second parallel port, which acts as a pass-through port.
