Q: I have a 220 and a 450. Can I connect both?
A:
Yes you can. The 220 is a serial only printer. And coincidentally behaves identically to the 420
in serial mode. So for your 450 in USB, plug-and-play should automatically create a printer
instance. For the 220, you'll have to create a printer instance manually (since serial doesn't
do plug and play with our printers.) When you select the printer, just select a 420 and set the
serial communications settings for the 220. This should give you two printer instances in
Printers and Faxes that you can print to.
