Cable locations

To run the cables beneath the flooring effectively, it is necessary to know where the cables enter and exit the printer. The following diagrams show those locations (marked with an X).

All power cords attach to the back of the printer. Listed below are the distances of the printer power cord attachments from the left end of the printer as you face it.

Channel attachments

The IPS printing system conforms to IBM standards and requirements for any channel-attached printer. When you channel- attach your printer, keep the following in mind:

•

•

Channel length is usually determined by the length of the cables, the number of devices on the channel, and the number of connections in the cable itself (for example, connecting two cables to each other).

Subtract 15 feet from the total allowable cable length for any device attached to the channel or for any connection of two cables.

•IBM channel cable lengths are as follows:

—Gray: 200 feet / 61 m (with one device, 185 feet / 56 m)

—Blue: 400 feet / 122 m (with one device, 385 feet / 117 m)
