Connecting Parallel Cable
To ensure reliability, use an IEEE-1284 bi-directional C-type parallel 
cable. (These cables are clearly marked with “IEEE-1284.”) Only 
IEEE-1284 cables support all of the printer’s advanced features.
1 Make sure the printer and your 
computer are turned off.
Note
The cable should install easily. If 
installation is difficult, check the cable 
orientation.
2 Connect the parallel cable to the 
printer parallel port. Press the 
locking release levers in while 
connecting the cable.
3 Connect the other end of the cable 
to the proper connector on the 
computer.
Note
See your online user guide for 
information on ordering IEEE-1284 
parallel cables.
