Printer Cable:
The
Xerox LS 3270
does not necessarily have to be plugged
directly into the Centronics Input Port of your printer. An extention
Centronics cable can be ordered for distance connection between
the
Xerox LS 3270
and your printer. This kit also contains a velcro
tape to enable mounting on the side of a printer.

2.2.2 Installation Procedure
Below follows the procedure for installing the Xerox LS 3270:
1.
Make sure the printer power is turned OFF.
2.
Plug the Centronics Output Port of the
Xerox LS 3270
into
the Centronics Input port of the printer and lock it with the
bail locks.
3.
Check that the rotary switch on the
Xerox LS 3270
is in the
correct position for the printer driver needed:
Position
A
for
PCL
(default)
Position
B
for
FSL
If you need to make changes to the printer driver, see
section 1.1.1,
PCL or FSL output Driver
, “Changing the
Driver”, for details on how to do this.
4.
Connect the coax cable to the
Xerox LS 3270
.
5.
Power ON the printer. The CU and PAR LEDs of the
Xerox
LS 3270
will turn on if the power is sufficient (for location of
CU and PAR LEDs, see figure 2-1 in Section 2.1
Knowing
the Front Panel

Check power and signal connection. If po wer is sufficient
and a coax connection exists between the Xerox LS 3270
and a controller
, the green CU LED will stay ON. If the CU
and PAR LEDs were not turned on at power on, you must
add an external power supply to the
Xerox LS 3270
.
