Installing the IEEE 1284 Interface Board

Before you begin any installation, always ground yourself by touching something metal to discharge any static electricity. Static electricity can damage the IEEE 1284 interface board.
Do not subject the IEEE 1284 interface board to physical shocks.
For connection to the IEEE 1284 interface board, use a half pitch 36-pin interface cable.

Check the package contains the following:
Turn off the power, and then unplug the power cable.
Remove the two screws and the slot cover of the IEEE 1284 interface board mounting bracket.
When the IEEE 1284 interface board is installed, the slot cover is no longer required. However, we recommend you keep the cover for future use.
Attach the IEEE 1284 interface board to the controller board.
Insert the end of the IEEE 1284 interface board into the slot.
Confirm that the IEEE 1284 interface board is firmly connected to the controller board.
Fasten the IEEE 1284 interface board to the controller board with two screws.
Check the IEEE 1284 interface board is connected firmly to the controller board.

Confirm that the IEEE 1284 interface board was correctly installed by printing the configuration page. If it is correctly installed, "Parallel Interface" will appear for "Device Connection" on the configuration page.
If the board was not installed properly, repeat the procedure from step 2. If it cannot be installed correctly even after reattempting installation, contact your sales or service representative.
