Getting Started 3

This illustration shows the input ports found on the rear panel

of the printer. Both a parallel and a serial 

interface port

 are

provided. If using the printer with Windows, you will use its

Parallel Interface Port

. Note that the printer’s 

auxiliary port

 is

for use with auto loaders and automatic duplicators only,

which are sold separately. For more information on each of the

interface ports, please refer to Appendix A.

D. APPLYING POWER

1. Locate the power adapter supplied with your printer.
2.  Place one end of the adapter cord into the power port on

the rear panel of the printer.

3.  Plug the power cord of the adapter into an available wall

outlet. Once the power cord is connected, the printer will

automatically turn ON.
