and the web page feature.
The Printer Troubleshooting and Specifications sections can also be consulted for information that

Connecting to the Printer
The computer communicates with the printer through a local parallel printer or optional network
interface that has been installed as part of the AR-PB2A Printer Expansion Kit by your authorized
Sharp dealer. The following section shows the location of the printer interface connection and
provides step-by-step procedures on how to connect the appropriate cable.
NOTE
If you plan on moving the printer, contact your authorized Sharp dealer.
Parallel Printer Interface
The printer supports an IEEE 1284-compliant parallel printer interface. This interface requires an
IEEE 1284-compliant cable that connects to the rear of the printer to the computer (see Figure 1-1).
CAUTION
Do not attempt to connect the printer interface cable to the printer and/or computer with the power turned on.
Connecting the printer interface cable while power is applied can cause equipment damage.
Connector
36-pin DDK 57LE-40360-730B (D29) female connector or
equivalent connector
Cable
Shielded type bi-directional parallel interface
For best results, use a printer interface cable that is
IEEE1284 compliant.
