Tri-port card
The printer does not come with standard serial support. You can, however, add a serial
port, infrared port, and a LocalTalk port to the printer by installing a tri-port card. You can
install a tri-port card, illustrated in the following figure, in one or both ISPs on the printer
system board.
If you install two tri-port cards, you can use only one infrared and one LocalTalk connec-
tion. You can, however, use both serial connections. The following top-level menus are
available at the operator panel when a tri-port card is installed:
•
LocalTalk Menu
•
Infrared Menu
•
Serial Menu
•
Fax Menu
For more information on printer menus and settings, see “Changing printer settings” on
page 27.

The serial port on the tri-port card provides a RS-232C/RS-422A 25-pin D-shell female
connector. The maximum speed of the port is 115,200 baud. You can select either
