LocalTalk connection

You can make LocalTalk connections between the printer and a single computer or on a LocalTalk network using a daisy-chainor star setup. If your LocalTalk installation is complex, or if you need assistance, contact your network system administrator.

Note LocalTalk is sometimes referred to as AppleTalk. LocalTalk refers to the physical connection; AppleTalk is the set of protocols.

LocalTalk connectors and cables are available through your dealer. The illustration shows two commonly used types of LocalTalk connectors:

1.Self-terminating connector.

2.Connector that requires an external terminator (depending on your network configuration).
