2. Preparation
2-1. Installing the printer and connecting LAN cable
■ Installing Printer
With an unobstructed view, the guideline transmission distance is approximately 30 m. The
transmission distance depends on the setup environment. This includes electrical interference from
the periphery, obstacles such as the printer, and the antenna location. Carefully consider these
points before the installation.
■ Connecting LAN cable*
Connect a LAN cable to the RJ45 connector of this
interface board. (Diagram on right shows a typical
example)
* When configuring the wireless LAN settings on this
interface board, connect via Ethernet to configure
them.
2-2. Connecting the USB Wi-Fi Adapter
To perform wireless LAN communication, connect the USB Wi-Fi adapter to a USB port of the board.
In the case of the IF1-WFX5 which has two USB ports, connecting USB Wi-Fi adapters to both the
left and right ports is possible, but even if two USB Wi-Fi adapters are connected to both the left and
right, operation will not be possible.
Connect the USB Wi-Fi adapter while the power of the printer is off.
2-3. Connecting a Peripheral Device
There are the following restrictions regarding peripheral devices. Correctly observe them when using
a peripheral device.
• Connecting a device other than a supported model to a USB port is prohibited (please inquire about
which devices are supported).
• Connecting a tablet or other device to a USB port for the purpose of supplying power is also
prohibited.
• Connecting and disconnecting a peripheral device to/from a USB port while the power of the printer
is on is prohibited.
• Connecting via a USB hub is prohibited.
・ If the Ethernet and Wi-Fi USB adapter are connected at the same time, Ethernet will be
enabled.
・ For use with a wireless LAN, disconnect the LAN cable after the settings are finished.
