Optional Interfaces
This section describes how to install the LocalTalk/Serial
modules and optional interface cards listed below.
‰
To add a serial or parallel interface to your printer, use one
of the following:
LocalTalk/Serial module C82334
✽
32 KB Serial Interface Card C82307
✽
32 KB Parallel Interface Card C82310
✽
The LocalTalk/Serial module provides your printer with either
an RS-232C or current loop serial connection.
‰
To add a direct connection to an IBM mini or mainframe
system, use one of the following:
Coax Interface Card C82314
✽
Twinax Interface Card C82315
✽
The coax and twinax connectors each contain a parallel
interface. Since the printer’s built-in parallel interface remains
active, this gives you three parallel interfaces and a coax or
twinax interface. Print jobs can be sent to any connection, and
the printer automatically switches between the active ports.
The twinax interface is compatible with the following IBM
systems: AS-400, System 36, 5251 (model 12), System 34,
System 38, and 5294. When equipped with an EPSON twinax
interface, the printer can be used in place of the following IBM
system printers: 4210, 5224 (models 1 and 2), 5256 (models 1, 2,
and 3), 3218 (non IPDS), 4214 (model 2), 5225 (models 1, 2, 3,
and 4), and 5219 D01, D02.
The coax interface allows the printer to be connected to the
following IBM control units and mainframe systems: 3174,
3276, 4274, and 3270.
