You can also connect your printer to the SIMATIC Box PC using a serial COM port.

ing cable you require in the description of your printer.

You connect external multisynchronous monitors using the standard
VGA connector on the left-hand panel side of the unit. We recommend that you
use a Siemens monitor.
