Introduction
The Printer Module (APR-PRT3) provides the ability to automatically print live or stored events.
Home Automation Interface Capabilities
When used with an EVO Series or DGP-848 (V4.11 or higher) control panel, the Printer Module can also
be used as an interface between a home automation system and your control panel. For information on
this feature and its related programming sections, refer to the ASCII Protocol Programming Instructions
and/or C-Bus Programming Instructions available on our website at paradox.com.

Printer Requirements
Dot matrix, inkjet or laser printers can be connected through one of your computer’s COM ports to the
Printer Module’s serial port. Events can be displayed and printed using communication software like
Procomm™, Telix© and HyperTerminal®.
It is recommended that only dot matrix printers that support a minimum of 80 columns be connected
directly to the Printer Module. Only dot matrix printers can print individual events in real time.
