Installing a Parallel Printer
21
• First, connect your parallel printer to the Multi-port Hub using
IEEE 1284-compliant cables (Belkin F2A046-XX where “XX” is
the length in feet).
• Install your printer’s drivers using the software that came with
it. Better yet, download the latest software from the printer
manufacturer’s web site. When the software prompts you for
the port name, select “LPTUSB1”.
• If not, open the printers folder by clicking on START, then
click on SETTINGS. Right-click on your printer icon, and
choose PROPERTIES. Click on the DETAILS tab. Click on the
drop-down menu for “Print to the following port”, and
select “LPTUSB1”. Click on APPLY:
You’re done! You can now print to your printer from any
Windows
®
application.
