Installing a printer or other
peripheral device
Your notebook or optional port replicator has one or more of
the following ports: IEEE 1394 (also known as Firewire
®
or
i.Link
®
), Universal Serial Bus (USB), and S-Video (digital video).
You use these ports to connect peripheral devices such as
printers, scanners, and digital cameras to your notebook.
IEEE 1394 and USB ports support plug-and-play and hot
swapping , which means that your notebook 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 notebook will prompt you to install any
software the device needs. After doing this, you can
disconnect and reconnect the device at any time.
Connecting a USB device
Your notebook has USB ports for connecting devices such as
a diskette drive, flash drive, printer, scanner, camera,
keyboard, or mouse.
Important
Before you install a printer, scanner, or other peripheral device, see the
device documentation and installation instructions.
