Before you can use a physical printer, you must install
the printer.
Perform the following steps to install a physical printer.
- Review all relevant installation planning information and the printer's
documentation to ensure that you have the required components and information
to install the printer.
- Review the terminal documentation for information on connecting
printers to the auxiliary (AUX) port.
- Verify that the AUX port on the terminal is configured with the
same settings as your printer, such as baud rate, parity, data bits, stop
bits, and XON/XOFF.
- For information about setting values for the AUX port, consult your terminal
documentation.
- For information about configuring the printer's serial interface, consult
your printer documentation.
- Connect the printer to the terminal's AUX port. Be sure to use
the proper cabling. Consult your documentation for cabling instructions.
