You can connect the printer to a PC, a local area network, an AS/400 (or
other midrange), or a mainframe. This section explains how to connect the
printer to any of these systems.
You can use any of these three ports on the rear of the printer:
• Serial communications port
• Parallel port
• Optional I/O board port (if you have an interface card installed)
Printer ports: This illustration shows you where to connect your system to the printer.
You can connect the printer to either a serial (COM) port or a parallel port
on your PC. You must provide the correct cables for connecting the
printer. Contact your Intermec representative for ordering assistance if you
do not have the appropriate cables.
