RS-422 Serial Interface Connector Pin Assignments
The printer provides a 25-pin DB-25S connector on the right side
panel for connection of a serial interface cable. This connector is
also used for the RS-232 serial interface. Selection of the desired
interface is determined by the position of the RS232/422 switch
located on the right, rear side panel of the printer.
Table 9 lists the pin assignments of the RS-422 interface
connector.
