INTERFACE SUPPORT
Twinax interface
If you select a twinaxial interface, the twinax network interface
card is plugged in to the motherboard of the printer. The card is
configured to your specifications by your Xerox service
representative when the printer is installed. The side panel of the
twinax network interface card includes a twinaxial connector, a
parallel port, a SYNC LED, a seven-position address selection
switch, and a test button. Figure B-2 illustrates the rear view of
the twinax network interface card. The twinax connector on the
side panel of the card is smaller than conventional connectors.
An autoterminated T cable included with the printer connects the
card to conventional twinaxial cables. Also located on the
network interface card is a connector for the installation of an
optional IPDS (Intelligent Printer Data Stream) module.

You should never attempt to remove the interface card from the
printer motherboard. Your Xerox service representative will
configure the 4219/MRP or 4215/MRP interface card according to
your specifications, including switch settings for the default page
size, print language, and printer address. The address switch
setting on the panel of the network interface card determines the
printer emulation. Refer to the “Configuring the interface card”
section of the Xerox 4219/MRP 4215/MRP Mid Range Systems
Printer Operator Guide for a list of printer emulations and
corresponding addresses.
