In addition to the two standard interfaces (Ethernet and Centronics/
IEEE 1284 parallel) your printer supports an optional interface, such
as DECnet-TCP/IP, IBM 3270/5250A, serial CrownNet Token-Ring, or
another CrownNet Ethernet interface. Additional interface options
allow greater flexibility when working in a complex network environ-
ment.
»Note: The LocalTalk network or single Macintosh interface
information is contained in the “Optional LocalTalk Interface” section,
and the serial interface information is contained in the “Installing an
Optional Serial Interface” section, later in this chapter.
An optional network interface may be installed in the optional inter-
face opening on the back of the printer. This opening is to the left of
the other interface ports and it is covered with a rectangular metal
plate.
The printer’s simultaneous interface operation (SIO) allows the
optional interfaces to be active at the same time as the other ports.
One host can interface through the parallel port, one through the
optional serial port, one through the Ethernet port, and one through
the optional interface port. See your QMS vendor for a list of available
optional network interfaces available.
