Connecting to the Interface

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

RegionA icon(mainly Europe)

Connecting to the interfaces illustration numbered callout illustration

  1. USB Host Interface

    Port for connecting a USB interface cable or USB interface device

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

  2. IEEE 1284 port (optional)

    Port for connecting an IEEE 1284 interface cable

  3. 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.

  4. Gigabit Ethernet port

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

    Use this interface to connect the machine to a network.

    If you use an Ethernet interface cable that supports 1000BASE-T, set [Ethernet Speed] to [Auto Select: Enable 1Gbps] in [Interface Settings] in [System Settings].

  5. Wireless LAN port (optional)

    Port for using a wireless LAN

  6. Extended USB Port (optional)

    Port for connecting the supplied USB cable

    The other end of the supplied USB cable must be connected to the USB 2.0 [Type B] port.

    Do not connect to devices other than the machine.

Note

  • RegionA icon(mainly Europe) The slot can contain one module only: You can install one IEEE 1284 interface board, one Wireless LAN interface unit, or one USB Device Server Option at a time in this slot.

  • RegionA icon(mainly Asia) The slot can contain one module only: You can install one IEEE 1284 interface board or one Wireless LAN interface unit at a time in this slot.

  • RegionB icon(mainly North America) The slot can contain one module only: You can install one IEEE 1284 interface board, one Wireless LAN interface unit, or one USB Device Server Option at a time in this slot.

  • The Gigabit Ethernet port and Wireless LAN interface unit cannot be used 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 interface unit cannot be used simultaneously.
