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

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.
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.
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.
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.
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 port, Gigabit Ethernet port and Wireless LAN interface unit 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. If the optional Wireless LAN interface unit is installed, you need to set [LAN Type] to [Wireless LAN] in [Interface Settings] in [System Settings].
The Bluetooth interface unit and the Wireless LAN board cannot be used simultaneously.
