Connecting The Printer To The Network - Epson PRO Reference Manual

Connecting the Printer to the Network

How you connect the printer to the network depends on your
network type:
If you are connecting to a LocalTalk network, attach a
LocalTalk locking connector box to the LocalTalk connector
on the back of the printer. Attach one end of a LocalTalk
cable to this connector box.
Attach the other end of the cable to an available port on any
connector box that is part of the network. For more
information about creating an AppleTalk network, see the
owner's guide that comes with the LocalTalk Locking
Connector Kit.
If you are connecting to an EtherTalk network using a thin
coaxial (10BASE2) cable, first attach the T-connector
supplied with the board to the 10BASE2 connector on the
Ethernet interface board. Connect the network cable to one
node of the T-connector.
If the printer is not the last device in a daisy-chain, connect
another network cable to the other node of the T-connector.
If the printer is the last device, attach a 50-ohm terminator
to the other node of the T-connector.
If you are connecting to an EtherTalk network using a
twisted-pair (10BASE-T) cable, connect the network cable's
RJ-45 connector to the 10BASE-T connector on the Ethernet
interface board.
