2.2.3 Interface Cables
Choose a connection method that will best serve your purpose:
To connect the printer to the host’s serial (RS-232C) interface use an acceptable cable
configuration, as shown below (contact your reseller for ordering information).
Part # 32-2483-01
Part # 32-2301-01
To connect the printer to the host’s parallel interface use a Centronics
parallel cable.
To connect the printer to the host’s USB interface use a standard USB cable.
Note that the printer has a versatile communications feature: When connected to more than one interface, the
printer will automatically connect to the first port (serial, parallel, or USB) from which valid data is received.
After this connection has been made, the printer’s power must be cycled ‘Off’ and ‘On’ to change the interface
connection.
