The OneTouch scanner connects to any available parallel (LPT) port on
the back of your computer.
To connect the scanner to a parallel port:
1. Save any open files, and then shut down Windows.
2. Turn off the power to your computer.
3. If a printer is already attached to your computer’s parallel port,
unplug the printer cable from the computer. If you don’t have a
printer attached to your computer, skip this step.
4. Plug one end of the scanner cable into the port on the back of the
scanner marked “Host.”
