Cable Installation
Stacker Cable
There is a cable with a connector leading from the back of the stacker that plugs into
a socket on the TCB (refer to the P.C. Board Identification section in this manual).
The socket and plug are polarized. Rotate the plug until the polarized keyway and
socket align and push the stacker connector into the socket.
PC Interface Cable
The 545 requires a 9-pin RS-232 cable which is provided with the printer. If the
cable was not found it can be ordered from PAXAR - (Part no. 351124).
The male end of the cable should be connected to the 9-pin D-shell female connector
that is located on the right side of the printer at the TCB (refer to the P.C. Board
Identification section in this manual). The female end of the cable is made to fit a 9-
pin male RS-232 connector on the back of a PC. In case a 9 pin serial port is not
available, a 9 to 25 pin converter is also shipped with the printer.
Keyboard
An optional keyboard can be connected to the printer for diagnostic purposes to be
used by PAXAR service representatives only.
