Interfaces
Overview
This chapter describes the host interfaces provided with the printer. The
printer interface is the point where the data line from the host computer plugs
into the printer. The interface processes all communications signals and data
to and from the host computer. Plus, with the Auto Switching feature, you can
configure the printer to accept several interfaces at the same time.
This chapter describes the interfaces provided with the printer.
Standard Host Interfaces:
•
Centronics parallel
•
IEEE 1284 parallel bidirectional
•
High Speed Serial Port (RS-232/RS-422)
Optional Host Interfaces:
•
Coax / Twinax
•
Ethernet 10Base-T
In addition to descriptions for the multi-line interfaces, this chapter also
provides instructions for configuration of terminating resistors for the parallel
interfaces.
