Printer to Your Host

Computer

The following paragraphs outline how to connect your host computer to

the printer, and will also show how to make cable connections to other
devices. Depending on the system configuration you use to print labels,
there are 5 possibilities for connecting the printer to your host computer.
These are:

• A parallel cable connection between the printer’s standard parallel

connector and your host computer’s parallel port (LPT).

• An Ethernet connection using the standard LAN board.
• A USB cable connection between the printer’s standard USB

connector and your host computer’s USB port. (Conforming to
USB 2.0 Full Speed)

• A serial cable connection between the printer’s optional RS-232C

serial connector and one of your host computer’s COM ports.
<Option>

• Wireless LAN using an optional Wireless LAN board. <Option>

For details of each interface, refer to APPENDIX 2.

After connecting the necessary interface cables, set an operating
environment of the printer. Refer to Section 2.8.1 Parameter Setting.
