Connecting to Your PC
As stated above, you can use either a serial port or parallel port for the GDI printer
function. A serial cable comes with the 2002, but if you decide to use the parallel port, you
must purchase a parallel cable. To comply with ECM (RFI-EMI) requirements, this
parallel cable should not exceed 6’7” (2 meters), and should have a high-quality shield.
Verify that the parallel cable you are use conforms to the pinout specifications listed
below:
See “Connecting to a Computer on page 5-3 to connect the parallel printer cable between
the 2002 printer port and a parallel port on your computer.
