AAUI adapters are available from several manufacturers or direct from GCC.
Note:
Some interfaces have specific settings that you must select through the printer’s
control panel Interfaces submenu.
Connecting cables correctly
Most cables come with some kind of mechanical locking device. Be sure to use these
locking devices, otherwise you may experience intermittent errors or the printer will
fail to operate altogether.
• There is no locking device on LocalTalk or RS-422 Serial connectors. Make sure
the plug is pushed all the way into the socket.
• When you have inserted a Parallel port cable, lift up the wire clips at both ends
of the socket so that they fit into the slots on the sides of the cable.
• 10BASE-T plugs have a locking tab similar to plugs on telephone cords. When
the plug is fully inserted the tab clicks into place.
• AAUI plugs are self-locking. Push the plug into the socket until you feel it lock.
• 10BASE-2 plugs have a rotating collar. Plug the cable into the socket, then
rotate the collar clockwise to lock it.
Improperly inserted cables are the cause of many networking and printer-related
problems.
LocalTalk connection
The Elite XL 20ppm uses the LocalTalk cable system to connect to AppleTalk-
compatible networks. This connection forms a chain; do not connect devices so that
it forms a circle.
Important: You need a connector kit for each device on the network. Therefore, you
need two connector kits to connect the printer to one computer, and so forth.
To plug in LocalTalk cables:
1.
Switch off the printer.
2.
Connect one LocalTalk connector box to the LocalTalk port on the printer.
