local cable
You can attach your printer locally using either a USB, parallel, or serial
connection.
USB A USB port is standard on all models.
Windows 98 SE, Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and
Windows Server 2003 operating systems support USB connections.
Some UNIX, Linux, and Macintosh computers also support USB
connections. Refer to your computer operating system documentation
to see if your system supports USB.

cable to the USB symbol on the printer.
Be sure to match the USB symbol on
the cable to the USB symbol on the
