Getting Started
This chapter explains how to connect the Ethernet card to the
network and how to operate the card.
Connecting the Ethernet Card to the Network
You must physically connect the Ethernet card to the network
using either a 10BASE-T or 10BASE2 network cable.
You should leave the printer or leaving the printer set to auto
interface mode (default), which automatically switches modes
to match the type of interface being used.
Initialization of the Ethernet Card
The first time you use the Ethernet card, turn on the printer
while pressing and holding down the status sheet button for
about three seconds. The Ethernet card initialize. For the
location of the status sheet button, refer to the page 1-3.
Connecting via the Ethernet interface
Attach the network cable to the appropriate connector on the
Ethernet card interface as shown in the diagram below. Your
printer package contains a coaxial Y-connector for a 10BASE2
network interface connection. You must connect the Ethernet
card in your printer to the network and select the Ethernet
interface for network connection.
Note:
The Ethernet card plate, shown below, is located on the back of your
printer.
