Cables
A power line cord is provided with the printer, but no data cables. The
following provides data cable requirements and ordering information.
ASCII Serial/Parallel: The 6400 printer is connected to personal computers
and controllers via industry standard EIA-232-E and PC-parallel printer
cables. For Dataproducts interfaces, you will need to obtain a Dataproducts
cable. Contact your IBM service representative to order the following:
•
EIA-232-E Cable
•
PC-Parallel Cable
•
Dataproducts Adapter Feature
AS/400: The 6400 is connected to the AS/400 ASCII Workstation Controller
via the following IBM cables, available through your IBM service
representative:
•
20 ft. RS-232
•
40 ft. RS-232
