Phaser 480X Color Printer
LocalTalk connection
You can make LocalTalk connections between the printer and a single
computer or on a LocalTalk network using a daisy-chain setup. If your
LocalTalk installation is complex, or if you need assistance, contact your
network system administrator.
LocalTalk connectors and cables are available through your dealer. This
illustration shows two commonly used types of LocalTalk connectors:
1.
Self-terminating connector.
2.
Connector that requires an external terminator (depending on
your network conÞguration).
Note
Depending on the type of LocalTalk cables you use and your
network configuration, you might need to use terminators at
certain points in the installation. Refer to the documentation for
your LocalTalk connectors and cables for details.
Note
LocalTalk is sometimes referred to as AppleTalk. LocalTalk refers
to the physical connection; AppleTalk is the protocol.
