Before the printer can accept print jobs from the host,
you must

connect the communication cable to the printer and
the host.
◆
set the communication values on the printer to
match those at the host (only required if you are
using the serial port).
For parallel communication:
1. Turn the printer off before connecting the cable.
2. Connect a parallel printer cable from the computer
to the Centronics® parallel port at the back of the
printer.
3. Secure the cable with the spring clips.
