Connecting to the Serial Port
Connecting to the serial port involves the following tasks:
• Connect the interface cable to the printer and your computer.
• Print out the status report to check the serial parameter default settings.
Connecting the Serial Interface Cable
To connect to the serial interface port, you need a cable correctly wired
for this printer and your computer. The cable must also have the proper
connectors. Your dealer or technical support person can supply you with
the proper cable.
The serial interface of this printer requires a null-modem cable with a
male DB25 connector at the printer side. Refer to your computer
documentation for the type of connector required by its serial port.
Notice:
Be sure that the printer is turned off before connecting the interface
cable.
Do not touch any connector contacts to avoid possible electrostatic
damage to the printer.
