telephone base units

3. Flip down the legs on the underside of the output tray so it sits up on the paper support.
3Plug the Printer In and Turn It On
1. First make sure the power is off. Check
the POperate button; it’s off when its
surface is even with the button guards on
each side.
2. Plug the power cord into a properly
grounded outlet. To protect the printer
from power surges, you may want to use a
surge protector.
3. Press the POperate button to turn on the printer.
The Operate and Ink Out lights come on and the ink cartridge holders move to the
installation position. The Pause light begins flashing.
Caution:
Do not plug the printer into an outlet controlled by a wall switch or timer, or
on the same circuit as a large appliance. This may disrupt the power, which
can erase the printer’s memory and damage the power supply.

labels face up and the arrows pointing toward the

sheet feeder as described here.

printer has not moved or made noise for 10 minutes.
Note:
For instructions on loading other types of paper or using the other paper
feeders, see your on-screen User’s Guide.

7Connect the Printer to Your Computer
You can connect your Epson Stylus Color 1520 printer to either an IBM®compatible PC
or an Apple®Macintosh. You’ll need a shielded parallel cable to connect directly to a PC
or an Apple System Peripheral-8 serial cable to connect directly to a Macintosh. If your
Macintosh doesn’t have a serial port, you’ll need the USB Adapter Kit (part number
C-USB-PK4).
Connecting to a PC
1. Turn off the printer and your computer.
2. Connect the cable to the printer’s parallel interface. Then squeeze the wire clips together
until they lock in place. If your cable has a ground wire, connect it now.
3. Connect the other end of the cable to your computer’s parallel port and secure it as
necessary. See your computer documentation for details.
Note Note:
For a complete list of system requirements and for information about
ordering accessories, see the Introduction in your on-screen User’s Guide.
See Appendix A of your on-screen User’s Guide for instructions on
installing an optional network interface card if you want to use the printer
on a network.
Note:
The printer is assigned to parallel port LPT1 when you install the software.
If you want to use a different port, see your Windows documentation for
details.
If you have a ground
wire, connect it here
