Connecting to a Network

This section explains how to connect this machine to a network.

Important

Use a 100BASE-TX (category 5) or 10BASE-T network cable when you connect this machine to a network.

With the network cable you use for connection, create a single loop about 15cm (6”)(A) away from an end of the cable, and then attach the ferrite core that comes with this machine as illustrated below.

Note

Skip this step when you use this machine in North America.

Insert the network cable’s end that has the ferrite core into the network interface connector of this machine.

Insert the other end of the network cable into an ap- propriate connector of a network device, such as an Ethernet hub.

Connecting to a

Local Printer

You can make a USB connection between this machine and a printer, when you want to use it as a local printer for Print Scan. This section explains how to connect a printer to this machine using a USB cable.

Note

Connect a USB cable to one of the USB ports of the USB interface card.

Connect the other end of the USB cable to the USB port of the printer.

ADG007S

Important

You cannot use more than one printer as a local printer for Print Scan at the same time. When you connect two or more printers to the ma- chine using USB cables, the printer that is detected by this machine first is only available.

Attach the card slot cover that comes with this machine.

To attach the card slot cover

A Reeve the USB cable through one of the slits of the card slot cover.
