4-2. Connecting to a Peripheral Unit
You can connect a peripheral unit to the printer using a modular plug. The
following describes how to install the ferrite core and make the actual connection.
See “Modular plug” on page 115 for details about the type of modular plug that
is required. Note that this printer does not come with a modular plug or wire, so
it is up to you to obtain one that suits your needs.
Important!
Make sure that the printer is turned off and unplugged from the AC outlet
and that the computer is turned off before making connections.
(1) Connect the peripheral drive cable to the connector on the rear panel of the
printer.
Important!
Do not connect a telephone line into the peripheral drive connector.
Failure to observe this may result in damage to the printer.
Also, for safety purposes, do not connect wiring to the external drive
connector if there is a chance it may carry peripheral voltage.
