2.2.2 Connecting an Interface Cable
The printer can be interfaced to a host device via Ethernet, Parallel, Serial, and USB ports.
Following power-up (or after inactivity), interface port selection occurs automatically upon
detection of valid data. If incoming data flow stops as the Host Timeout period (see Section
4.2.5) is met, partially received formats will be ignored and the port selection repeated.

•
To change an active port immediately, cycle the power OFF and ON.
•
For alternate data processing options, see INPUT MODE, Section 4.2.4.
Ethernet Connection
The Ethernet interface supports several menu-selectable modes. Depending on the length,
the cable should be Category / Type 3 or better. Refer to Appendix F for setup information.
Parallel Connection
The parallel interface supports directional communications. Choose and connect cabling as
follows:
•
For unidirectional communication, use a Centronics IEEE 1284 cable with a 36-pin
male connector; or,
•
For bi-directional communication, use an IEEE 1284 Compliant cable with a 36-pin
male connector (and supporting host software).
Serial Connection
The serial interface supports RS-232C, RS-422, and RS-485 communications (see Appendix
C for RS-422/485 details).
