2-26 Installation bb _________________________________________
Use the following procedure to connect your printer and host using
the parallel port.
1. Turn off your printer and host computer.
2. Plug the 36-pin connector end of the parallel cable into the
parallel port on the back of the printer (fig. 2.19).
3. Plug the cable’s 25-pin end into the parallel port on your host.
4. Turn on the host and then the printer.
If you work on a network and need to connect a second host to
another printer port, skip to the section on connecting to the desired
port later in this chapter. If not and you are connecting an optional
hard disk, skip to “Connecting a Hard Disk” later in this chapter.
Otherwise, skip to chapter 4, “PC Setup.”
Connecting to the Serial Port
Connecting to the serial port involves two areas:
• Connecting the printer and host
• Making sure printer, host, and application settings match
You need a standard 9-pin to 9-pin straight through or a 25-pin to
9-pin straight through serial cable to connect your host and printer
(fig. 2.20). The serial port on the rear of the printer uses a 9-pin
(DB-9) connector. The serial port on your host uses either a
25-pin connector or a 9-pin connector.
