7 Connecting with the Serial Port (Cable)
First obtain the optional RS-232C cable (PD79901-0S).
1 Turn off the power to the printer and the device to be connected.
2 Insert the cable connector straight into the printer’s serial port.
Take care not to connect it upside down. (The connector is connected with the side
marked “PUSH” facing upwards). Forcing the connection may damage the unit.
To disconnect the connector, pull it out while pressing the part marked “PUSH”.
3 Connect the other end of the cable to the serial port of the device being
connected.
4 Turn on the power to the printer and the connected device.
Data is transferred through the serial port (through the RS-232C cable) only if the
cable is connected before the printer is turned on.

Precautions When Using the Connector Cable
Ensure you are using the correct cable. For example,
do not try to force a USB connector cable in this
serial port.
Do not touch the metal portion of the cable connec-
tor once the other end is connected to the printer
port.
Static electricity poses a risk of damage to the
printer’s internal circuitry.
Do not leave the cable wrapped around the printer for
extended periods. This may result in short circuiting
and discoloration.
