4-3 Connecting to an Ethernet Network
Connecting to the Network
The Ethernet port supports two types of connections:
n
Thin-wire Ethernet (10Base2, BNC connector)
n
Twisted-pair Ethernet (10BaseT, RJ45 connector)
Thin-Wire Ethernet
Thin-wire Ethernet connections use BNC connectors.
» Note: Unless the BNC “T” connector described in steps 1 and 2 is
already installed on the thin-wire Ethernet cable, your network’s
operation is disrupted during the connection process.
1 Turn off the printer, and unplug the power cord.
2 Attach one section of thin-wire Ethernet
cable to one end of the BNC “T” connec-
tor.
» Note: If the BNC “T” connector is already
installed, go to step 3.
3 Attach another section of thin-wire Ether-
net cable or a 50 ohm terminator to the
other end of the BNC “T” connector.
4 Attach the BNC “T” connector to the BNC Ethernet port.
