Connecting to the IEEE 1284 Interface
This section describes how to connect an IEEE 1284 interface cable to the optional IEEE 1284 interface
board.
This machine does not come with an IEEE 1284 interface cable. Make sure you purchase the
appropriate cable for the machine (connector shape) and your computer.
Use a five meter (197 inch) or shorter IEEE 1284 compatible cable whose performance is guaranteed
on the host computer.
1. Make sure the main power switch on the machine is off.
2. Turn off the main power switch of the host computer.
3. Connect an IEEE 1284 interface cable to the IEEE 1284 port.
You might have to use a conversion adapter to connect the cable to the interface. For details about
acquiring a conversion adapter, consult your sales or service representative.
4. Connect the other end of the cable into the interface connector on the host computer.
Before connecting the cable to the computer, check the shape of the connector. Connect the cable
firmly.
5. Turn on the main power switch of the machine.
6. Turn on the host computer.
When using Windows 7/8.1/10 and Windows Server 2008/2008 R2/2012/2012
R2/2016, a printer driver installation screen might appear when the computer is turned on. If this
happens, click [Cancel] on the screen.
