Why do I need an installation cable?
When setting up the printer on your wireless network, the printer will need to temporarily connect to a
computer using the installation cable. This temporary connection is used to set up the wireless settings of
the printer.
The installation cable connects to a rectangular USB port on the installing computer and the square USB
port on the printer.
How do I attach the installation cable?
The installation cable attaches to a USB port on the computer and to the square connector on the back of
the printer. This connection allows you to configure the printer for a networked or locally attached
installation.

Attach the large, rectangular connector to any USB port on your computer. USB ports may be on the
front or the back of the computer, and may be horizontal or vertical.
