Connecting a parallel printer
To achieve the connection, you need a suitable cable, which
may come with your parallel printer. Otherwise, you can
purchase one from a computer or electronics store.
Connect a parallel printer before you turn on the computer.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for connecting a
parallel printer to your computer.
Setting up a printer
If you started your computer with a printer connected and
turned on, it may have been detected automatically (Plug and
Play). If this is not the case, then you must install the printer
driver for the model of printer that is connected to your
computer. You install the printer driver either by following
the instructions indicated in your printer manual, or by using
the operating system Add Printer Wizard.
If you plan to set up a printer later, click Cancel.
Using the Add Printer Wizard
To set up a printer with the Add Printer Wizard:
1 Click Start, Control Panel, then Printers and Other
Hardware.
