Epson LX-810 Printer User Manual


 
Connecting the Printer to Your Computer
If the self test printed correctly, you are now ready to connect
your printer to the computer.
If your computer has a parallel interface and you have a suitable
shielded cable, you should be able to connect your printer
immediately. The steps below describe how to connect the parallel
interface cable.
If your computer requires another type of interface, you will need
to install an optional interface board. See the section on interface
boards in Chapter
5.
If you are not sure which type of interface cable is required, refer
to your computer manual.
The parallel interface
Connect the parallel interface cable as described below:
1.
