Connecting Peripheral Devices 
Connecting multiple SCSI
 
devices 
 
1.
Turn off the printer and the SCSI devices.
2.
For each SCSI device, set a unique SCSI ID number (0 – 6; the printer is 7).
3.
Connect the SCSI cable to the first SCSI device; you will need high-density 
SCSI connectors. Connect the second device to the first and so on.
4.
Connect the SCSI cable attached to the first SCSI device to the printer port 
marked “SCSI.”
5.
 Attach the terminator to the last device in the SCSI chain (not required if 
the SCSI device has a built-in terminator).  Note the following:
The printer has an internal terminator.
The printer must always be at one end of the chain with a 
terminator (or a device with an internal terminator) at the other 
end.  
Most SCSI external hard disks are shipped with an internal 
terminator that is active.  If you are connecting multiple hard disks, 
you will need to deactivate the terminators on all devices except for 
the last device on the daisy chain. See the documentation provided 
with the disk for instructions.
For a scanner’s termination, refer to its documentation. 
6.
If you have connected an uninitialized SCSI hard disk, see “Initializing a 
formatted SCSI device” on page 89.

To avoid damaging components, before you connect or disconnect a SCSI cable, 
turn off the printer and all SCSI devices.  
Before you turn on the printer, turn on the SCSI devices.
