Connecting a Hard Disk

You can connect multiple hard disks to your printer via the SCSI
port. Adding a hard disk increases the available space for font
storage. You can download a font to RAM or to a hard disk.
However, a font stored in RAM has to be downloaded each time the
printer's power is turned off and on. If you store the font on a hard
disk, it remains there until you remove it.
Usually a 20 MB external hard disk is sufficient since this size can
hold approximately 500 to 600 extra fonts. However, if you use a
large number of fonts, you may want a larger disk or multiple disks.
To connect a hard disk to your printer, you will need a SCSI
peripheral cable (25-pin to 50-pin). If the disk is not internally
terminated, you also will need an external SCSI terminator. See the
hard disk documentation for termination characteristics.
Caution:
You need to assign an identification number to your hard
disk. Do not turn on the printer or any attached hard disk
until the disk has been assigned a number. See your
SCSI disk documentation for details on assigning this
number.
