Table 2 on page 25 provides basic information about communication interfaces that you can use to connect your printer to a computer. You may send label formats to the printer through any communication interface that is available. Select an interface that is supported by both your printer and your computer or your Local Area Network (LAN).

Caution • Ensure that the printer power is off (O) before connecting data communications cables. Connecting a data communications cable while the power is on (I) may damage the printer.
