Select a Communication Interface
The way that you connect your printer to a data source depends on the communication options
installed in the printer.
Optional Print Servers:
• ZebraNet Wireless Print Server. This option is available for 105SL printers with serial
number greater than 6400356. For more information on this option, see the ZebraNet
Wireless Print Server User Guide (Zebra part number 13422L-001).
• ZebraNet 10/100 Print Server (10/100 PS). For more information on 10/100 PS, see the
ZebraNet 10/100 Print Server User and Reference Guide (Zebra part number
47619L-001).
• ZebraNet PrintServer II (PSII). For more information on PSII, see the PrintServer II User
and Reference Guide (Zebra part number 45537L).
Standard interfaces: the RS-232 DB-9 serial data port and the IEEE 1284 compliant
bidirectional parallel port. For further information, see
.
Serial Port Depending on the date of manufacture, your Zebra 105SL printer may be
equipped with either a DB-25 serial connector or a DB-9 serial connector.
Communicating using a serial data port (see
for a DB-25 serial interface connector
and
for a DB-9 serial interface connector) requires choosing the baud rate, number of
data bits, stop bits, parity, and handshake (default settings are 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit,
no parity, and
XON/XOFF
). Parity only applies to data transmitted by the printer since the
parity of received data is ignored. See
to configure the
communication parameters. The values selected must be the same as those used by the host
equipment connected to the printer.
Note •
If you have the DB-9 serial interface connector, RS-422 and RS-485 serial data ports
are available through an adapter. Contact your Zebra distributor for details.
