USB C

ABLE

To connect the SuperScript 1400 printer we recommend using
a certified USB cable.

note:

Some operating systems do not support USB

connection. See Chapter 3 “Installing the Software” for
details. Windows 98 must have the driver installed to
support USB printing.

Make sure the printer and the computer are turned off.

Plug the appropriate end of the USB cable into the
connector on the back of the printer

(A)

Plug the other end of the cable into the appropriate USB
connector on your computer

(B)

Connect the Power Cord to the rear of the printer. Plug
the other end of the Power Cord into a properly
grounded outlet

(C)

note:

Do not turn on your computer until you have

successfully printed out a Configuration Sheet. Follow the
directions on the next page.
