Setup guide
Note
If you install a display adapter card, you must set jumper J1
on the main system board to disable the built-in VGA
interface so that your card can operate as the primary
display adapter. You may also need to set jumper J4 to
indicate whether a color or monochrome monitor is
installed. See Chapter
4
of the
User’s Guide
for instructions
on changing jumper settings.
Once you have installed your video card, return to this section
to connect your monitor to the computer. If your monitor came
with its own manual, follow the instructions there. Otherwise,
you can follow the steps in “Using the VGA Interface” on
page 1-4; just insert your monitor connector into the video card
port instead of the built-in VGA port.

Connecting a Printer or Other Device
Your computer has both parallel and serial interfaces. To
connect a printer or other peripheral device to one of these
interfaces, follow the instructions below.
Using the Parallel lnterface
The parallel interface on your computer is Centronics
®
compatible and uses a DB-25S connector.
To connect your printer and computer, you need an IBM
compatible printer cable. If you are not sure which cable you
need, check with your Epson dealer.
