Unit 3: Installation

INTERFACE UPGRADE

The printer is typically ordered with a high-speed parallel interface board installed. However, interface requirements sometimes change and an upgrade is desired. All of the interface boards are installed within the same slot (middle) located in the rear of the printer with little or no difference in installation methodology with the exception of the mini-LAN interface (top slot).
