Connecting to the Ethernet Interface Region A icon(mainly Europe and Asia)

This section describes how to connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet interface.

Caution:

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

Important

  • If the main power switch is on, turn it off.

  • Use the following Ethernet cables:

    • Unshielded Twisted Pair Cable (UTP) or Shielded Twisted Pair Cable (STP) and Category type 5 or more

1A ferrite core for the Ethernet interface cable is supplied with this machine. Attach the ferrite core at the machine end of the Ethernet cable.
