C.AppleTalk Interface

The mini 8-pin serial interface connector is the standard interface type used by Macintosh. PrimeraProÕs Apple LocalTalk (230.4 Kbps) compatible interface allows PrimeraPro to be connected either directly to the printer port of your Macintosh or to an Apple LocalTalk network.

Direct-connect AppleTalk is supported for those who wish to use a standard serial cable to directly connect PrimeraPro to a Macintosh computer. You may use the standard Apple Macintosh Peripheral-8 Cable or the equivalent when printing to PrimeraPro.

To use the printer on an Apple LocalTalk network, use the Apple LocalTalk Locking Connector Kit DIN-8 or the equivalent. Connecting to other LocalTalk networks requires a LocalTalk DIN-8 connector compatible with the particular network.

PrimeraPro supports the following AppleTalk Protocols: AppleTalk Link Access Protocol (ALAP), AppleTalk Transaction Protocol (ATP), Printer Access Protocol (PAP), Datagram Delivery Protocol (DDP), Echo Protocol (EP), Name Binding Protocol (NBP), and Routing Table Maintenance Protocol (RTMP).
