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 need a SCSI peripheral
cable (25-pin to 50-pin). If the disk is not internally terminated, you
also need an external SCSI terminator. See the hard disk
documentation for termination characteristics.
