# Connecting to the Interface

Previous Next

This section explains how to identify the machine's interface and connect the machine according to the network environment.

| A network interface cable with a ferrite core must be used for RF interference suppression.

1. Slot A

   Install an optional interface board in this slot.

   The slot can accommodate one of the following interface boards:

   - IEEE1284 interface board: Required if you want to connect an IEEE 1284 cable to this machine for printing.

   - Wireless LAN interface unit: Required if you want to connect this machine to a wireless LAN. When installed in Slot A, this unit allows you to connect the machine to an IEEE 802.11 a or IEEE 802.11 b/g wireless LAN.

2. USB 2.0 [Type B] port

   Port for connecting a USB2.0 [Type B] interface cable

   This interface allows the machine to print over USB connection.

3. 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX port

   Port for connecting a 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX cable

   Use this interface to connect the machine to a network.

4. USB Host Interface

   Port for connecting a USB interface cable

   Use this interface to connect the machine to a card authentication device, external keyboard, or Bluetooth.

5. Gigabit Ethernet port (optional)

   Port for using a 1000BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or 10BASE-T cable

   Use this interface to connect the machine to a network.

- Slot A can contain one module only: You can install either one IEEE 1284 interface board or one Wireless LAN interface unit at a time in this slot.

- The Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet port cannot be used simultaneously. If the optional Gigabit Ethernet board is installed, connect the Ethernet cable to the port on the Gigabit Ethernet board. Communication with the machine will fail if cables are connected to both ports simultaneously.

- The Bluetooth interface unit and the Wireless LAN board cannot be used simultaneously.
