Notes on USB 2.0 Interface

When two or more Tx300P machines are
connected to one personal computer
When two or more Tx300P machines are connected to
one personal computer, the personal computer may
not recognize all the Tx300P machines normally.
Reconnect the unrecognized Tx300P machine to
another USB port, if available, and check to see if it is
recognized.If the Tx300P machine is not recognized
by the newly connected USB port, use USB 2.0
repeater cables available on the market.

Notes on peripheral devices in USB high speed mode
When a peripheral device (USB memory or USB HDD) to
be operated in USB high speed mode is connected to the
same personal computer that a Tx300P machine is
connected to, the USB device may not be recognized.
When Tx300P is connected to the personal computer
to which an external HDD is connected via USB, the
speed of data output to Tx300P may drop.That can
cause the head unit to stop temporarily at the right or
left end during printing.

Removing USB memory
If a USB memory module is inserted in the personal
computer to which a Tx300P machine is connected,
click "Stop" in the "Safely Remove Hardware" window
by following the instructions given there first and then
remove the module.
Leaving a USB memory module inserted can cause
[ERROR 10 COMMAND ERROR].
Copy the data onto the hard disk before outputting it
for printing.
Connecting the LAN cable
When connecting LAN cable, be sure to follow the note
below:
Printing Via a Network

network with the following environment.
If you configure it with an inappropriate environment, it
could cause printing to stop.
• Use LAN cables that are category 6 or higher.
• Use a switching hub and PC that support 1000BASE-T.
• Your RIP must be compatible with USB 2.0.
• Contact a RIP maker near your location or our
office when the USB2.0 interface is not attached
to the PC.
• Your RIP must be compatible with USB 2.0.
