Figure 2-5:  Peripheral Connection
 
Serial Port  
Connect to the serial port with a null modem cable.  The serial port provides 
an RJ-12 connector and allows user to:  
•  Print to a serial printer or plotter. 
•  Monitor the printer server by connecting an ANSII compatible terminal or 
a PC running an ANSII terminal emulation program. 
The Emulex default port configuration is set for 9600 bps, 8 data bits, no 
parity, 1 stop bit, DTE type, with softcopy emulation. 
•  Input print jobs directly by connecting to a host system serial port (e.g. an 
HP 3000). 
NOTE:  Serial cable between the printer server and the 
peripheral device or console terminal should not 
exceed 50 feet (15.24 meters).  Connection can be 
made through a null modem cable.
