SDIO Slot and USB Host Connections
The Secure Digital Input Output (SDIO) Slot and the USB Host Ports accept external memory
storage devices for fonts, graphics, label formats, and firmware upgrades. Additionally, the
USB Host Ports can accept a USB keyboard for direct inputting of data under certain
applications, including Line Mode operation.
For use as an additional storage, the SDIO Card or USB Memory Drive must be installed, and
then the files must be downloaded into a folder labeled F (in the SDIO module), or H (in the
USB Host module). To transfer files the respective folder, use the DMXConfig program which
is included on the Accessories CD, or Windows Explorer. Files downloaded via the DMXConfig
program to the printer will be converted during the process and will appear in the module folder
with a renamed printer-compatible file extension (e.g. .DBM [bitmap font]; .DTT [scalable font];
.DIM [image]; .DLN [menu language]; .DLB [label format]). For a list of acceptable file types for
downloading, see Module File Definitions.
