Connecting the Printer to Your Macintosh

The method you use to connect the printer to your Macintosh
depends on whether you want to send print jobs directly to the
printer using the printer's built-in serial interface, or send print
jobs to the printer over a network using an optional interface card.
For information on using an optional interface card, see
Chapter 5, "Using an Optional Interface Card".
To connect the printer to a PC, see Chapter 1, "Setting up the
Printer with Your PC".
