the printer’s parallel connector,
then fasten it with the wire clips.
Connect the EPSON Stylus Scan directly to the parallel
port on your computer. Do not use a pass-through port
on a Zip
drive or any other accessory. Do not use the same parallel port as you
use for your Zip drive. If your computer has more than one parallel port, connect
the printer to the built-in port (LPT1). For the fastest scanning and printing, enable
your computer’s ECP/DMA mode, if possible. See your computer documentation
for instructions.

install the software.
To connect the printer, you’ll need a shielded USB “AB” interface cable, not
more than 6.5 feet long.
First, you’ll connect the EPSON Stylus Scan to your computer, then you’ll
install the software.
To connect the printer, you’ll need a high-speed, bidirectional, IEEE-1284
parallel cable, not more than 6 feet long.
If you have a USB port ( Windows 98 only), we recommend using it rather
than the parallel port. See the previous section for instructions.
