Connecting the Machine to a Computer or Network
The machine can be connected to a computer or network with a USB cable or 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T Ethernet cable.
External USB devices (e.g., memory, keyboard, mouse, etc.) are not supported.
A USB cable or network cable are not included in this package. Please obtain a suitable cable for your computer or network.
Connecting to a Network
The machine supports TCP/IP, AppleTalk, and NetWare, which enables it to be used by Windows, Macintosh, UNIX, and Linux
computers. It also has a 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T connector that can be used on most LANs.
When using 10Base-T/100Base-TX, connect the machine's RJ-45 connector to a hub port using a Category 5 twisted pair LAN
cable. When using 1000Base-T, it is recommended you use an Enchanced Category 5 twisted pair LAN cable.
