Chapter 3: Getting Started
Installing a printer, scanner, or other
peripheral device
Your computer has one or more of the following ports: IEEE 1394 (also known as Firewire
®
or i.Link
®
), Universal Serial Bus (USB), serial, and parallel. You use these ports to connect
peripheral devices such as printers, scanners, and digital cameras to your computer. For
more information about port locations,
“Checking Out Your Gateway Computer” on
.
IEEE 1394 and USB ports support
plug-and-play
and
hot-swapping
, which means that your
computer will usually recognize such a device whenever you plug it into the appropriate
port. When you use an IEEE 1394 or USB device for the first time, your computer will
prompt you to install any software the device needs. After doing this, you can disconnect
and reconnect the device at any time.
Parallel and serial port devices are not plug-and-play. See the device documentation for
detailed information and installation instructions.
Important
Before you install a printer, scanner, or other peripheral device, see
the device documentation and installation instructions.
