Connecting a Printer
Connecting a Plug and Play Printer
If your printer supports plug and play, Windows Vista will detect it and attempt to
install the printer automatically. In some cases, Windows may require a driver for the
printer. This driver is located on the software CD that is included with the printer.
1. Determine if the printer connects via Parallel or USB.
2. If it is a parallel printer, connect its parallel cable to the (pink)
parallel printer port, located at the back of the computer.
3. If it is a USB printer, connect its USB cable to an available USB port,
located at the back of the computer.
4. Connect the printer’s power cord to a grounded, three-prong power-
strip, uninterruptible power supply, or wall outlet.
5. Turn on the printer and Windows Vista will automatically detect it and
install the appropriate driver.

It is common for some printers, scanners and other
