the other end.
2. Locate the red connection port on the terminal. This port is the one with the red
arrow above it on the terminal.
3. Hold the maintenance cable's connector so that its release lever is on the bottom.
4. Tilt the connector and insert the top of it into the top slot of the terminal's red
connection port.
5. With the top slot in place, tilt the connector down onto the terminal until the
release lever snaps into place on the connection port.
6. Plug the serial connector at the end of the maintenance cable into the portable
printer.

Warning: Do not pull on the maintenance cable itself.
