Before you can connect a printer, you must determine whether it
requires a parallel, serial, infrared, or a USB interface. Check the
printer’s documentation. If you can configure the printer as either a
serial or a parallel device, set it up for parallel operation.

provided with your printer. If not, your company may keep a stock

electronics store.
TECHNICAL NOTE: If your printer is ECP- or IEEE-
compliant, make sure your printer cable is an IEEE 1284
cable.
