Chapter 3. Printer Installation
Printer Connections
RS 232 (Serial)
If the installation requires the Centronics cable data interface, connect the
external serial cable to connector RS 232 on the printer back panel (see
Figure 3.13). This cable goes to a COM port on the system controller
(host) PC (see "Controller Connections" in Chapter 4, "System
Installation").
Note: CABLE-SERIAL PC: 5120/5240 (0139601) is the standard serial cable.
For detailed specifications of the RS 232 cable signals used by the
DP5000 series printers, see the Service Guide.
