The serial number is required for software installation. The first
page of this manual also includes a box for you to fill in the serial
number. For convenience, you can also write the serial number in
the box.
Follow the steps in your printer’s user’s guide to install the
Ethernet Card.
Setting up the printer
Some Epson printers require you to use the printer’s control panel
or DIP switches to select the interface you plan to use. The method
of making control panel settings on Epson printers may be called
SelecType
or
Default-Settings Mode.
See your printer’s user’s guide
for instructions on making the necessary interface settings.
Connecting the network cable
Once the board is installed in your printer, you must attach the
network cable to the interface. The Ethernet Card can accept two
types of network cables: Ethernet twisted-pair (l0BASE-T) or
Ethernet thin coaxial.
The Ethernet Card is an intelligent interface that can detect which
kind of cable is attached; you do not need to make any
hardware or software settings to specify the cable type.
However, you must not attach more than one Ethernet cable at
a time.
