Connecting
one SCSI
device
|
CAUTION
To avoid damaging components,
before
you connect or disconnect a SCSI cable, turn off the printer, then turn off the SCSI device.
|
-
Turn off the printer and the SCSI device.
-
On the SCSI device, set a unique SCSI ID number (
0 - 6; the printer is
7
).
-
Connect the SCSI cable to the SCSI device; you will need a high-density SCSI connector.
-
Connect the SCSI cable to the printer port marked "SCSI."
-
Attach terminator (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 hard disks are shipped with an internal terminator that is active.
-
If the SCSI device does not have an internal terminator, add one.
NOTE
Devises that require power from another device (TERMPWR pin 38) may not terminate properly.
|
-
For a scanner's termination, refer to its documentation.
-
If you have connected an uninitialized SCSI hard disk, see
Initializing a formatted SCSI device.
-
Turn on the SCSI device, then turn on the printer.
