1.  Connect the network cable that came with the EFG120 to the LAN port. Connect

the other end of the cable to your hub, switch, or PC.

2.  Connect a printer to the EFG120. Connect a standard parallel printer cable to the

EFG120 ’s rear-panel printer port. Connect the other end of the cable to your print-
er. (For further information on connecting a printer, refer to Appendix C of the
User Guide.)

3.  Connect the power supply. Plug the supplied power adapter into the EFG120’s

Power port, which is located on the rear panel.  Connect the power adapter to a
power outlet.

4.  Locate the EFG120’s power button on the front panel. Press it once to power on the

EFG120.  Then, power on the network printer, if you attached one to the EFG120. 

5.  Now that its power is on, the EFG120’s boot process will begin.  The EFG120 will

run a brief self-test (two or three seconds) prior to actually booting up. During the
self-test, most of the EFG120’s LEDs will be lit or flashing. The entire boot
process should take only a few  minutes.

6.  When most of the LEDs turn off, leaving only the Ready LED lit up (and not blink-

ing), the EFG120’s boot up is complete. If the Error LED is flashing, or if the
EFG120 repeatedly beeps, there is a hardware problem. Review the Beeper Codes
section in Chapter Two of the User Guide for explanations of the Beeper Codes.

This Quick Installation is meant to help you install the product quickly and easily. For detailed instructions
