Data cables must be fully shielded and fitted with metal or metallized
connector shells. Shielded cables and connectors are required to prevent
radiation and reception of electrical noise.
To minimize electrical noise pickup in the cable:
1. Keep data cables as short as possible.
2. Do not bundle the data cables tightly with power cords.
3. Do not tie the data cables to power wire conduits.

settings, then you must establish a temporary parallel connection to
send down the Set Communications (

the printer’s settings to match the host settings.
