Parallel Printer Connector
The Printer Connector supports several printer models, both dot matrix and ink jet, to provide printed reports
of your weld information, and to provide graphical representation of your weld results. The tractor feed
feature of dot matrix printers is preferred for many manufacturing applications. If necessary, consult your
Branson representative for recommendations for your specific needs.
The printers listed in Table 6 have been fully tested to confirm compatibility with Branson products. Print-
ers that were tested and are NOT compatible are the Panasonic 1091 and Epson LX300.
The printer interface uses a standard 36-pin Centronics cable (Branson printer cable EDP 100-143-043).
