When communicating via the parallel port (refer to Figure 13), the previously mentioned parameters are not considered. Refer to page 52 to configure the communication parameters for the printer. The values selected must be the same as those used by the host equipment connected to the printer.

For serial and parallel pinout and technical information, refer to “Appendix A: DB9 Connectors” beginning on page 97.

Data cables must be fully shielded and fitted with metal or metalized connector shells. Shielded cables and connectors are required to prevent radiation and reception of electrical noise.

To minimize electrical noise pickup in the cable:

Keep data cables as short as possible.

Do not bundle the data cables tightly with the power cords.

Do not tie the data cables to power wire conduits.

NOTE: Brady printers comply with FCC “Rules and Regulations”, Part 15, Subpart J, for Class A Equipment, using fully shielded 6' data cables. Use of longer cables or unshielded cables may increase radiated emissions above the Class A limits.

NOTE: RS-422 and RS-485 applications should use twisted shielded pairs as recommended in the Appendix of the TIA/EIA.-485 Specification.
