Section 3: Using the CD Color

Printer Pro with Windows

A. CONNECTING THE PRINTER TO YOUR COMPUTER

The CD Color Printer Pro is designed to be used with nearly

any IBM-PC

or compatible running Windows 2000/XP, or

Windows 95/98/Me.
The printer is equipped with a standard 8-bit Centronics-type

parallel port

. This port is the means through which it receives

data from your computer. To connect the printer to your

computer, obtain a shielded, bi-directional parallel cable, and

refer to the following steps:

NOTE: For faster printing, your computer’s parallel port mode should be set

to ECP. If you experience problems with this setting or if your

computer’s parallel port is not ECP compatible, set your computer’s

parallel port to the standard output only “Printer Port” setting. Refer

to your computer’s system documentation for instructions on

checking and/or changing the parallel port mode.

1. Connect the Centronics-type parallel side of the cable to the

printer. Snap the fastening clips into place.

2. Connect the other side to the back of your computer at

LPT1, LPT2, or the PARALLEL connector.
