3.1 Types of connections

You can use either of the following two methods to connect the machine to a computer.

Parallel port connection

Use this type of connection when you want to connect the machine directly to a computer’s parallel port. Refer to “Parallel port connection” on page 3-3.

USB port connection

Use this type of connection when you want to connect the machine directly to a computer’s USB port. Refer to “USB port connection” on page 3-4.

Network connection

In order to use the machine as a network printer, the Network Interface Card (NC-502) must be installed.
For details on connecting the machine to a network, refer to the User’s Guide for the Network Interface Card (NC-502).

Reminder
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.

Connecting the machine to the parallel port of the computer

1 Turn off both the machine and your computer.
2 Connect one end of the parallel cable to the parallel port (printer port)
of the computer.
3 Connect the other end of the cable to the parallel port on the left side
of the machine. Secure the interface cable connectors using the two clips.
