3. Network – Optional
4. USB – Optional

Now the compaq presario has 2 USB Ports and 1 LAN Port

As far as the Line Cord – should be standard – You may have to purchase interface cable separately – Not too sure what is in the box –

If you need some other interface, other than USB – you will need an Adapter USB Cable – either Parallel RS-232 or Serial – depending on what your needs are – If it is just matching ro PC, then you need the – USB Interface Option + an USB Cable –

Now I think some models of this printer has USB as a Standard?? Not sure
