This section tells you how to connect your SuperScript 4600N
Series printer to your computer or network.
note:
You can be connected to and receive data at the
parallel port and Ethernet port at the same time.
Connecting the 4600N Printer Locally
You can connect to an IBM
®
-compatible
computer using the bidirectional parallel
interface. We recommend an IEEE 1284
bidirectional parallel cable that is no more than 6 feet in
length. If you use a cable that is longer than 6 feet, it should
be certified as bidirectional. Use the wire clips to fasten the
cable to the printer.
Follow these basic steps:
1.
Make sure your computer and printer are turned OFF.
2. Plug the parallel cable into the parallel port on your
computer and printer.
3. Turn on your printer, wait until it displays the
READY
message, then turn on your computer.
Connecting the 4600N to a Network
With the SuperScript 4600N, you can connect
to an Ethernet network. Use a Category 5
twisted pair cable with RJ-45 connectors for
10/100Base-T Ethernet.
Follow these basic steps to connect the printer and verify that
the NIC is installed and operating properly.
1.
Make sure your computer and printer are turned OFF.
2. Connect the network’s twisted pair cable with
RJ-45 connectors to the new network port on your
printer. Reattach the power cord to the printer, plug in
the printer.
3. Turn on the printer. It may take up to 90 seconds to warm
up, and then it prints a Network Settings page with NIC
status information. For more details see the “SuperScript
Color Laser Network Guide.”
note:
Keep the Network Settings page. You or your
network administrator will need this information when
configuring the NIC for your network.
