  1. Click the Zoom Area command or use the IntelliMouse to zoom the area around the printer.
  1. In the Cables folder in the Symbol Explorer, drag the Peripheral Cable symbol onto the drawing sheet.

After you drag the cable symbol, it becomes a connector with attribution.

  1. Click the cable so that it is highlighted.
  1. Move the pointer to one of the connector end points (black square).

Press and hold, and move the mouse to modify the connector.

Release the button to place a vertex.

  1. With the pointer still over the connector end point, hold and press the end point to connect to a key point on the printer symbol.

NoteKey points appear as light gray circles on the corners and midpoints of the symbol border. A gray key point becomes a target point (red point) when you connect to it.
