Setup and Cabling

Consider the following when setting up the Standalone CD printer:

• Place the printer on a solid, flat, level surface close to your PC.

• Make sure the printer is at room temperature. Do not place the printer near a

heating or air conditioning duct. The temperature change may cause

inconsistencies when printing a label.

Procedure

Use the figure below to connect the cables to your Rimage Perfect Image

Standalone

CD Printer.

1. Connect the parallel cable to the parallel cable connection at the back of the CD

printer. The connector is keyed so it will only go one way.

2. Connect the other end of the parallel cable to a parallel port on the back of the PC.

3. Connect serial cable to the serial cable connection. The other end of the serial

cable is connected to the serial port on the back of the transporter or AutoPrinter.

Note: Since the 3-Bin Autoprinter is not controlled by the standard Rimage transporter, the

printer is installed with a daughter board to handle Perfect Print functions. Connect

the cable to the Perfect Print connection shown above, and to the corresponding

port on the back of the PC. 4-Bin Autoptinters do not require the daughter board.

4. Connect the power cord into the printer.

5. Plug the power cord into a suitable electrical outlet.

6. Remove the top cover of the printer.

7. Install the ribbon (See page 17 for directions).

8. Replace the top cover of the printer.

9. See “Positioning the CD”, on page 21.
