Installing and Using Your
Lexmark Z51 USB Printer
In order to further simplify your printer setup, we have pre-
installed the driver for the Lexmark Z51. This driver is the
most recent update, and it should be used instead of the driver
that came on CD with your printer. If you should ever need to
re-install this driver, you can use the Selective Restore feature
in QuickRestore, which is on your PC hard drive. For detailed
instructions on running QuickRestore, please refer to your
Service and Support Guide.
Using a USB-to-Parallel Printer
Adapter and the EZ2000 Series PC
Some parallel printers may not operate properly when
attached to the EZ 2000 Series PC via a USB-to-Parallel
printer adapter. Most USB-to-Parallel adapters do not
support bi-directional communication between the printer
and the PC.
The Compaq IJ300, IJ700, IJ750, IJ900 and A900 printers do
not support USB-to-Parallel printer adapter attachments.
It is highly recommended that you purchase a USB printer or
contact the USB-to-Parallel adapter manufacturer for
assistance.
Compaq.NET and 10-Digit Dialing
If you live in an area with mandatory 10-digit dialing (you
must dial an area code for every call), you will need to set
your Compaq.NET dialer to do this.

Using the USB Ports on Your
Compaq USB Internet Keyboard
The USB ports on your Compaq USB Internet keyboard were
designed to support low-power USB devices only. Devices of
this type include USB scroll mouse devices, gamepads, and
joysticks. High-power devices, such as scanners, printers, and
cameras, should be attached to the USB ports on the PC.
If you receive a message that states “USB hub power
exceeded...” you should attach the USB device to a USB port
on your PC.
