Figure 5: Connecting a the VGA Printer device to a VGA source

You can use an active VGA splitter to split the VGA signal

between a monitor and the VGA Printer device. Splitting the

VGA signal may reduce the image quality.

2 Use a USB cable to connect a printer directly to any VGA

Printer USB port.
Follow the connection instructions supplied by your printer

manufacturer for connecting your printer (except that you do

not have to install printer drivers on the VGA Printer device.)

3 Use a standard 10/100 Base-T RJ-45 Ethernet cable to connect

the network to the VGA Printer ETH 1 port.
The network must be running the TCP/IP protocol. Ideally

you should be able to connect to the Internet from the VGA

Printer device.

4 Connect the power adapter to the VGA Printer power

connector.
The VGA Printer device powers on and starts up.

5 Power on any printers connected to the VGA Printer device.
6 Start up the VGA source.
