terface board or optional IEEE 1394
interface board. This machine does
not come with a parallel cable to con-
nect the machine to the host compu-
ter.
The machine's parallel interface is a
standard bidirectional interface. It re-
quires an IEEE 1284 compliant Micro
Centronics 36 Pin Cable and a parallel
port on the host computer. Make sure
you purchase the appropriate cable
for the machine and your computer.
