Installing Optional Interfaces

In addition to the three standard interfaces ( serial, parallel, and
AppleTalk) your printer supports optional interfaces such as Ethernet,
and IBM 3270/5250A. Additional interface options allow greater flexi-
bility when working in a complex network environment.

Depending on which optional kit you purchased for your printer, your
option assembly kit may include some if not all of the following:

n

An interface board with metal plate attached

n

A daughterboard

n

Two plastic feet

n

A plastic ribbon cable

n

Two mini support posts

A Phillips screwdriver is needed for this procedure.
