Phaser 380 Color Printer

PhaserShare network and serial connections

Optional PhaserShare cards provide Ethernet, Token Ring, or

LocalTalk/Serial connections for the printer. PhaserShare network cards

offer high performance and ßexible workgroup connectivity. All data input

ports and network protocols are simultaneously active. Print jobs are

processed on a Þrst-come, Þrst-served basis.
PhaserShare cards can be purchased initially with the printer or later as a

separate upgrade kit. For ordering information, refer to ÒPhaserShare

network cards (recommended)Ó on page 8-7.

Installing PhaserShare™ network cards

The PhaserShare Network Cards and Software System Administrator Manual

contains detailed information on installing, conÞguring and using the

optional network interfaces.

Caution

Observe static electricity precautions when installing a

PhaserShare network card.

1.

Power down the printer. Do not unplug the printer; this preserves a

ground path to dissipate static charges. Unpack the network card.

Note

The Token Ring Network Card requires jumpers to be properly

positioned on the network card to support the speed of the network.

2.

Remove the network card cover plate from the rear panel of the

printer. Slide the network card into the card slot and Þrmly push

it into place. Secure the card in place with its thumbscrews.

3.

Connect the appropriate network interface cable to one end of the

network cardÕs connectors.
