Interface Cables and Connectors

You have many different cabling options with the 3240 printer. Your choice of
cabling depends on the network configuration, the hardware interface, the
protocol you use, cabling distance, and the electrical and environmental
conditions in which you are operating the printer. For typical installations,
Intermec recommends the following cabling options:
*  Shielded cable, minimum 24 gauge
*  25-pin D-style subminiature connector with metal backshell
*  Cable shield connected to metal backshell
*  EIA RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 electrical interface
