SCSI Printer Installation Details
The following sections discuss the requirements and procedure for connecting
your printer to the SCSI bus
SCSI ID's
You must select a SCSI ID for your printer(s) that does not conflict with any other
SCSI devices that are already on your system. Possible ID's range from 0 to 7
(some SCSI buses may support more, but our SCSI drivers only support this
range). Typically, ID 7 is reserved for the computer's own SCSI host adapter.
Other ID's are frequently taken by disk, CD-ROM, and tape drives. On most
platforms, you will see a list of occupied SCSI ID's on the system console during
boot up, or listed in a system-specific command display of device ID's. After you
determine what ID's are not being used, consult your printer or scanner manual
for setting its SCSI ID.
