Connecting the Printer to Your Computer
4.
If your cable has a grounding wire, connect it to the printer’s
ground connector as shown
below.
5.
Plug the other end of the parallel cable into your computer and
fasten the connector screws to the interface, if necessary. Some
parallel cables have grounding wires at the computer end as
well. If so, connect this wire to the ground screw on the
computer.
Connecting the serial interface
If you want to use the printer’s standard serial interface, make sure
that you have a properly shielded cable and that it is the correct
one for your printer.
