PRINTER DRIVERS > 11

This port requires a cable conforming to USB version 1.1 or

above. A genuine cable displays the Trident symbol on both

connectors.

Using an inferior cable can cause printing problems and

special cables are needed for longer runs than five metres

The operation of a printer is not assured if a USB compatible

device is connected concurrently with other USB compatible

machines.

When connecting multiple printers of the same type, they

appear as *****, ***** (2), ***** (3), etc. These numbers

depend on the order of connecting or turning on each printer.

CONNECTING THE USB CABLE

Due to the number of possible variants of operating systems it is not

possible to describe every combination.

Terminology may vary between Windows operating systems and some

knowledge is assumed. If you are unsure how to proceed, you should

consult your computer documentation or system manager for details.

This example uses Windows 2000 Professional.

Ensure the printer and computer are easily accessible and turn

both units off. This is not strictly necessary but may prevent

any problems being caused by the accidental dislodging of

power or other cables.

Plug the Series A Male connector (a) into

the computer’s USB port or into a

suitable USB hub.

Plug the Series B male connector (b) into

the printer’s USB port.

Switch on both the computer and printer.
