Features
1-17 Introduction
User Benefit—A security card restricts access to the configuration
menu to those users with valid passwords, thus ensuring that default
settings are not changed inappropriately.
LocalTalk Interface
An optional LocalTalk interface card provides direct connection to a
single Macintosh or to an AppleTalk network.
User Benefit—Any Macintosh not on an Ethernet (EtherTalk) network
can be connected directly to the printer.
CrownNet Network Interface
Using a CrownNet NIC (network interface card), the QMS 1660E
Print System can be attached to a Token-Ring network or to a second
Ethernet network.
User Benefit—Network interfaces provide flexibility and fast data
transfer in complex network environments.
Hard Disk Expandability
An optional internal IDE-SCSI disk drive board supports an internal
2.5" IDE hard disk and up to three external SCSI hard disks.
» Note:
Q-FAX document 6502, “QMS-tested SIMMs and Hard Disks,”
contains a description of each approved hard disk, its manufacturers
and part numbers, and the QMS products on which it’s used. See
appendix A, “QMS Customer Support,” of this manual to find out how
to access Q-FAX documents.
User Benefit—Hard disks provide true virtual memory as well as
storage for character bitmaps, downloaded outline fonts, and other
files.

The paper output ramp extends the QMS 1660E’s output tray to
accommodate 11.7" x 19.5"/297.18 x 495.30 mm media.
User Benefit—Extra-large-size media lies flat in the output tray.
