Adding a hard disk for font storage
You can connect one or more Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) 
external hard disks to the printer for additional font storage.  When you 
download a font to an external disk, the font remains there until you remove 
it.  In general, any disk that works with a LaserWriter NTX works with 
this printer.
You can order a 2.1 Gbyte external SCSI hard disk from Tektronix.
Order number is Z350DSK.
To connect an external disk you need these items:
A SCSI peripheral cable for each disk.  The printer uses a 
high-density SCSI-II connector for connection to an external font 
storage hard disk.  Standard SCSI-II cables are available from 
Tektronix; refer to “Interface cables and Ethernet adapters” on 
page 4.
One SCSI cable terminator, unless your disk has an internal 
terminator.
The printer can support up to seven external disks.  When connecting a hard 
disk to the printer, follow these guidelines:
Initialization
Unless the disk is already formatted for operation with a 
PostScript printer, you have to initialize (format) the disk after connecting it 
to the printer.  The Phaser 300X diskettes contain utility files to help you 
initialize the disk and download fonts to it.  Refer to the Phaser 300X Drivers 
and Utilities Printing Reference
 for instructions on how to use the utility files.
