Connecting the Printer
You can connect the printer directly to a computer using a USB cable, or
you can connect the printer to your network.
For network use, make sure you have the correct cable for connecting the
printer. You need a Category 6 shielded twisted-pair cable.
To connect to a network hub, you need a standard RJ-45 “straight-through”
network cable. To connect directly to your computer’s network interface,
you need an RJ-45 crossover cable.
1. Make sure the printer is turned off.
2. Plug the interface cable into the appropriate port on the printer.
3. Plug the other end of the cable into the appropriate connector on your
computer, or your network switch or hub.
Caution: Charging takes
about 10 minutes. Never
turn off the printer,
release the paper lever,
open the ink compartment
covers, or open the front
cover while the
P Power
light is flashing, or you
may damage the printer.
