Versa P.
1. Check that both the Versa and the device power is off.
2. Open the left-rear port cover and locate the serial port.
3. Align and connect the 9-pin connector with the serial
port on the system. Secure the connection with the
screws provided.
4. Align and connect the other end of the cable to the ap-
propriate port on the device. Secure the connections with
the screws provided.
5. Connect the power cable to the device and a properly
grounded wall outlet.
6. Turn on power to the system and the device.
NOTE: Make sure your printer is on line before
trying to print. See the printer guide for instructions.
NOTE: You can also use the serial port to connect
an external modem to your Versa P.
