Connecting the Printer to your Computer
980459-001 Rev C Prelim 1 P330i User’s Manual 21
Connecting the Printer to your Computer
The P330i Printer includes a standard USB interface.
As an option, the printer can be ordered with a 10/100base-T Ethernet Adapter (in addition to
the USB interface). The Ethernet Adapter can also be ordered as an add-on option and
installed in the field by a Zebra factory certified technician.
1. If using the USB interface, use the supplied USB cable to connect between the USB
connector on the printer and a USB port on the computer, as shown below. (Note that the
figure below shows the optional Ethernet Adapter directly above the USB Connector; this
may not be present on your printer.)
2. If your printer includes the optional Ethernet Adapter as well as the standard USB
connection, use either the supplied USB cable or a standard Ethernet cable to connect the
printer to a corresponding port on the computer or network.
