Using the Serial Ports

If you have a printer, a modem, or other peripheral device with a serial interface, you can connect it to one of the serial (RS-232C) ports on the back of the computer. These ports use a DB-9P connector, so be sure you have a compatible cable.

To connect a serial device, insert the connector into one of the ports, marked SERIAL 1 and SERIAL 2. If you are connecting only one serial device, use the SERIAL 1 port, as shown below.
