CONNECTING THE INTERFACE CABLE

ENGLISH

Getting started

To use the Copia 9915D as a laser printer connect it to your computer using either a parallel interface cable or a USB interface cable. (You can use a USB interface cable only if your personal computer has Windows 98 pre-installed)

When using the parallel interface

You cannot use both the USB interface and the parallel interface at the same time. If you connect both interfaces at the same time, the USB interface takes precedence.

Use an IEEE 1284 compliant parallel interface cable (2 m (6 feet) maximum length). For specifications of the parallel interface, see page 1-25.

Check that the power switches of both the printer and the computer are in the OFF

position.

Plug the parallel interface cable into the printer interface connector. Fasten the two bail

clips at the side of the printer connector to hold the interface connector in place.

Plug the other end of the cable into the parallel interface connector on your computer.

(Refer to your computer manual for details.)

Bail clip

The printer sends and receives data bi-directionally and at high speed. Some switch boxes and pass-through devices cannot support high-speed, bi-directional transfer of data, and using them may cause printing errors.
