panel.
When connecting the B/W Printer directly to the system, it is necessary to use an additional power
source.
As a safety precaution, this must be done via an isolation transformer.
The B/W Printer can be connected once the system is powered ON, or after shutdown. All software
drivers for the B/W Printer are pre-configured and installed designated to be used with the specific
B/W Printer supplied by GE.

No SafeLock Cart - connection via USB hub
As stated above.
Safety considerations must be taken into account. The B/W Printer
must be
powered via an isolation transformer.
Either USB port may be used to communicate with the
device.
•
Vivid q N mounted on SafeLock Cart
The B/W Printer may be connected to any of the USB outlets provided on the SafeLock Cart. You
must use the additional power source to activate the B/W Printer. However, this must be powered
from the SafeLock Cart itself, via one of the isolated peripheral power outlets provided on the cart.
NOTICE
IMPORTANT
During Stand-by mode, it is NOT recommended to
