Using USB Hubs, Keyboards and Scanners
The printer supports USB hubs, keyboards and scanners. Any USB hub,
Windows™ keyboard or number pad can be used with the USB-A port. Only USB
scanners that provide a keyboard-wedge interface can be used.
Keyboards and scanners can be used for menu navigation and data entry with
menus and stored formats. This allows for a stand-alone application when used in
conjunction with the printer’s LCD display.
