FLEXIBLE CABLE

8.5.1 Connecting and Fixing the Flexible Cable Terminal

Use and FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) connector to connect and fix the flexible
cable terminal.
Refer to the external view of each printer for the mounting position of the FPC
connector.

8.5.2 Bend Radius of Flexible Cable

Design the case of peripheral device to provide for a minimum radius of at least 5R
(mm) at the point where the flexible cable bends.
