USB cable
Unlike the other connections, the USB cable may be attached and detached while the system is operating.
To install the USB cable:
1 Open the connector cover at the rear of the printer.
2 Attach the USB cable to the USB connector, shown at the left above (A). Don’t plug the USB cable into the cash
drawer connector (B) by mistake! Doing so may damage the printer. The USB symbol should face up when inserted
into the port. Make sure the connection is snug.
3 Route the cable through the strain relief on the connector cover (see the “Cable routing” section which follows on page
21).
4 Connect the cable to the USB port in the host computer. Again, make sure the USB symbol on the connector is face up
when you plug it into the port.
Note: If the printer is configured to use CommClass USB, you must install the CommClass USB driver on the host
computer. The driver is available for download from the website at www.CognitiveTPG.com.
