CHAPTER 1 GENERAL

1–15

Manual Loading

This printer loads paper automatically from the paper cassette. Even
envelopes can be loaded from the multi-purpose tray and the upper paper
cassette. In addition, the multi-purpose tray allows you to load paper
sheet by sheet.

See 3-15

for auto loading and manual loading.

Four Interfaces

This printer has a high speed bi-directional parallel interface, an RS-232C
serial interface, a Universal Serial Bus (USB) and a modular input/output
(MIO) compatible interface.

If your application software supports the bi-directional parallel interface,
you can monitor the printer status. It is fully compatible with the
industry-standard bi-directional parallel interface.

See page 2-15.

The RS-232C serial interface is an industry standard so that you can
connect it to any computer using a standard serial cable.

See page 2-15.

The Universal Serial Bus is an interface which allows the printer to be
connected with multiple peripheral devices. (Window 98 only)

The MIO interface allows you to install a commercial MIO-compatible
card. If you install the card, you can use one more interface port for
features such as networking or printer sharing.

See page 5-7.

Automatic Interface Selection

This printer can automatically select the bi-directional parallel, RS-232C
serial, Universal Serial Bus, or MIO interface depending on the interface
port through which it receives data. With this feature, the printer can be
connected to more than one computer.

See page 3-5.
