1 Place the printer on a level surface, near a mains electrical outlet
and with easy access for loading paper and ribbon, and for
removing printout.
2 Check that the printer is switched off.
3 Connect the power cable to the mains receptacle and to the
electrical outlet.
The EasyCoder E4 LinerLess is fitted with a 36 pin female
Centronics connector for the parallel interface port and a DB9 fe-
male connector for the RS 232 serial interface port.
• Centronics Parallel Interface: Use the parallel interface with the
Windows driver because it is faster than the serial interface.
• RS 232 Serial Interface: Use the serial interface with Direct
Protocol programming because you can receive error messages
from your printer. This is not available using the parallel interface.
Switch off both the PC and the EasyCoder E4 LinerLess before
connecting them together.
The EasyCoder E4 LinerLess is also fitted with a Type 3 PCMCIA
slot, which can hold up to two Type 1 or Type 2 PCMCIA cards
(5V). These can be Memory or Font cards and are optional.
