Unpacking and Assembling the Printer
27
To add a serial or parallel interface to your printer, use one of the
following:
To add a direct connection to an IBM mini or mainframe system,
use one of the following:
The coaxial and twinaxial connectors each contain a parallel
interface. Since the printer’s built-in parallel interface remains
active, this gives you two parallel interfaces and a coaxial or
twinaxial interface. Print jobs can be sent to any connection, and
the printer automatically switches between the active ports.
The twinaxial interface is compatible with the following IBM
systems: AS-400, System 36, 5251 (model 12), System 34, System
38, and 5294. When equipped with the EPSON twinaxial 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 coaxial interface allows the printer to be connected to the
following IBM control units and mainframe systems: 3174, 3276,
4274, and 3270.
To add a direct connection to your GPIB network, use the GPIB
