able to access the printer to load supplies and to remove the printout.

Check that the printer is switched off.

3

Connect the power cord from the socket on the rear plate to an elec-

trical outlet (90 to 265 VAC).

Computer

The EasyCoder PX4i is fi tted with one 9-pin D-style subminiature
(DB9) socket for the RS-232 serial interface port and one class B connec-
tor for the USB interface port (see Appendix C).

RS-232 Serial Interface

Before you can use the serial interface, you may need to set up the com-
munication parameters, such as baud rate, parity, etc. as described in
Chapter 6, “Setting Up the Printer.”

USB Interface

The printer supports USB v1.1. There is no communication setup for
USB. For more information, refer to Appendix C.

Optional Interface and Network Boards

Several types are available (see Chapter 8, “Options”). Refer to Chapter
6, Chapter 7, and Appendix C for connection and setup instructions.

The printer can be set to scan all communication ports. When it detects
incoming data on a port, the printer automatically switches to use that
port for both input and output. Press the <i> key to get information on
the active communication channels.

Switch off both PC and printer before connecting them together.
