Additional battery pack
You can increase the portability of the computer with additional battery
packs. If you're away from an AC power source and your battery runs
low, you can replace it with a freshly charged battery. See Chapter 6,
Power and Power-Up Modes.
Additional AC adaptor
If you frequently carry the computer to different sites such as your home
and office, having an AC adaptor at each location reduces the weight and
bulk of your load. If you purchase an additional AC adaptor, please only
use the one recommended by your TOSHIBA dealer and which
corresponds to your computer.
Parallel printer
You can connect any standard Centronics-compatible parallel printer to
your computer. All you need is an IBM PC™ parallel printer cable. Your
dealer can supply one or you can purchase one at most computer stores.
The cable's connectors are designed so that it is impossible for you to
connect them incorrectly. To connect a printer, follow these steps:
1. Turn off the computer.
2. Insert one end of the cable into the computer's parallel port.
3. Tighten the screws that fasten the cable connector to the computer's
parallel port.
4. Insert the other end of the cable into the printer's parallel connector.
5. Fasten the connector to the printer with the clips on the parallel port.
6. Turn on the printer.
7. Turn on the computer.
8. Windows XP may automatically recognize the printer and you can
begin printing immediately. If it doesn't, install the printer with the Add
Printer Wizard. To access the Add Printer Wizard, click Start, point
to Settings, click Printers and double click the Add Printer icon.
