Ask your authorized representative about the following options which can
enhance the versatility of your printer:

Fonts: A selection of fonts is available to extend the capabilities of the
standard resident fonts.

Internal Label Rewinder: In label peel-off mode, peels off labels one at a
time before printing the next label and rewinds the liner into a discardable
roll. In batch rewind mode, rewinds printed labels into a removable roll.

•
Media Cutter: The cutter is used to automatically cut printed media when
the media exits the printer.
•
Media Cutter Tray: This option is used with the Media Cutter option to
catch the cut media in a bin.
•
Coax/Twinax Host Interface: This provides connection to an IBM host
computer system using a coax or twinax interface.
•
Network Interface Card (NIC): This option allows you to attach the

host computer.
The printer may be ordered with this option installed and the required
hardware to support it, or it can be field installed by an authorized service
representative at a later date. The parallel port is no longer accessible
when the NIC option is installed.
