Getting Set Up 2

PhaserShare network and serial connections

Optional PhaserShare cards provide Ethernet, Token Ring, or LocalTalk/serial connections for the printer. PhaserShare cards can be purchased initially with the printer as an installed option or later as a separate upgrade kit. If purchased initially, you will find the PhaserShare network manuals included in the shipping box with your printer. If you purchased a PhaserShare card as an upgrade kit, install the card using the directions provided with the upgrade kit.

PhaserShare network interfaces offer high performance and flexible workgroup connectivity. All data input ports and network protocols are simultaneously active. Print jobs are processed on a first-come, first-served basis.

The PhaserShare Network Cards and Software System Administrator Manual contains all the information necessary for configuring and using the optional connections. For ordering information, refer to Appendix B. Refer to “Interface cables and adapters” on page 5-3 in this manual for information on ordering serial cables.
