When to Use the Optional LocalTalk Interface

If you want to connect the printer to an AppleTalk network so multiple Macintosh computers can share the printer, you need to obtain an EPSON Talk kit for the Stylus COLOR. To purchase one, contact your dealer or call EPSON Accessories at (800) 873-7766.

You can also use LocalTalk to connect the printer to a single Macintosh. However, you must still create an AppleTalk network using the LocalTalk Locking Connector Kits. See the owner’s manual that comes with the LocalTalk kits for more information about setting up an AppleTalk network.

Installing the Optional LocalTalk Interface Board

To install the LocalTalk interface board in your printer:

1.Turn off the printer.

2.Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.

Warning:

w Do not install or remove an interface board when the printer is connected to the electrical outlet. If you do, you may damage your printer or Macintosh.

3.Turn the printer around so that its rear panel faces you and disconnect any interface cables.
