4.5 Connecting to your host computer

The computer sends data to the printer through a cable to the printer’s standard serial interface (Connector Type: D-sub 25-pin). This printer does not come with a cable, so it is up to you to obtain one that suits your needs.

Important!

•The following instructions apply to the interface cable that is used with an IBM-compatible personal computer. Note that they do not apply to all types of computers and cables. If you are unsure about what type of cable you should use to connect with your computer, consult your dealer.

•Make sure that the printer is turned off and unplugged from the AC outlet and that the computer is turned off before connecting them.

❏Afﬁx the larger ferrite core onto the interface cable as shown in the illustration below.
