Ethernet Printer Information

Ethernet printers are full-featured bar code label and tag printers

designed to interface directly with the Ethernet network. The printer
works with any TCP/IP system. Additionally, it has a Centronics

parallel interface for connection to a standalone computer or terminal.
Many models also have a serial port or USB port.

Note: A special cable is necessary for the C Series parallel and serial ports.

Ethernet Interface

Ethernet Link Indicator

A green LED on the printer rear panel illuminates when there is a
proper Ethernet connection to the hub.

Ethernet Connector

The printer is physically attached to the network by Ethernet cabling,

using a 10Base-T (twisted pair) connection. The Ethernet connector is

a type RJ45 on the printer rear panel. Its pinout is shown below.

Physical Address

The physical address (MAC address) of each printer is assigned at the

factory, and cannot be changed. Each printer's physical address is
indicated on a label affixed to the bottom of the printer.
