2 Connecting to a Computer
Connect the printer controller to the computer using either of the following
two methods.
To connect to the parallel port
Using a parallel cable, local ly connect the printer directly to a
computer.
Refer to “2.1 Connecting to the Parallel Port (Local Connection)” on
page 3.
To connect to the Ethernet 10/100Base-T port
If the printer is to be used on a network, connect it using a 10/100BaseT cable.
Refer to “2.2 Connecting to the Ethernet 10/100Base-T Port (Network
Connection)” on page 4.
Important!
• If the printer is to be used on a network, the optional network
interface card NC-3 must be installed.
2
2 Connecting to a Computer
2.1 Connecting to the Parallel Por t (Local Connection)
Use the parallel cable to connect the parallel port of the printer controller to
the parallel port of the computer.
Important!
• Be sure to use a shielded parallel cable. Use of an unshielded cable
may result in radio frequency interference.
• The parallel port is compatible with IEEE1284 Type B standards.
1. Make sure that the Digital Copier and the computer to be connected to
the Digital Copier are turned OFF.
2. Connect one end of the parallel cable to the parallel port (printer port)
of the computer.
3. Connect the other end of the c able to the parallel port of the printer controller installed in the Dig i tal Copier.
This comple tes the connection of the printer controller to the computer.

2 Connecting to a Computer
2.2 Connecting to the Ethernet 10/100Base-T P ort
(Network Connection)
If the printer is to be used on a network, connect the network interface card
to the network (LAN).
Important!
• This connection requires the optional network interface card NC-3.
• Be sure to use a shielded cable for the Ethernet 10/100Base-T cable.
Use of an unshielded cable may result in radio frequency interference.
1. Make sure that the Digital Copier is turned OFF.
2. Connect one end of the Ethernet 10/100Base-T cable to the 10/
100Base-T port of the network interface card, and then connect the
other end of the cable to the hub.
This completes the network connection.
