CHAPTER 1 ABOUT THIS PRINTER

™  Interface cable
•  An interface cable is not a standard accessory.
•  Some computers have both a USB and a parallel port.  Please purchase the
appropriate cable for the interface you intend to use.
•  Today most parallel cables support bi-directional communication, but some might
have an incompatible pin assignment or may not be IEEE 1284-compliant.
•  Do not use a parallel cable that is longer than 3 metres (10 feet).
(For HL-1440, HL-1450 and HL-1470N Users)
•  When you use a USB cable, be sure to use a high-speed twisted cable (12 Mbps)
and connect it to the USB connector of your PC.
•  Do not use the USB connector on the front of your PC or on the iMac keyboard.
