Connecting the Printer to Your Macintosh
The method you use to connect the printer to your Macintosh
depends on whether you want to connect directly to the printer
using the printer’s built-in serial interface, or you want to
connect the printer to a network using an optional interface
card (see the next page).
Using the built-in serial interface
To use the printer’s built-in serial interface, you will need
an Apple System Peripheral-8 cable. Read the following steps
to connect the printer to your Macintosh.
1. Make sure both your printer and Macintosh are turned off.
2. Connect one end of the interface cable to the serial connector
on the back of the printer.
3. Connect the other end of the interface cable to either the
modem port or printer port on the Macintosh. The ports are
marked with the following icons.
4. Turn on the printer by pressing the
Operate
button.
