Chapter 2 - Hardware Connections
Overview
• Ethernet Interface for TCP/IP Setup.
• USB Interface.
• Parallel Interface (LPT1).
You must confi gure either a local (USB or LPT1) connection for printing
directly to your Ilumina or a network (Ethernet) connection for printing over
a network.
Ethernet Interface for TCP/IP Setup
Install the Ferrite Core
In order to reduce electromagnetic interference — ”noise” that interferes with TVs
or other appliances — you must place the enclosed ferrite core on the network cable
connected to your printer.
To Install the Ferrite Core:
1. Disconnect the network cable from the Ilumina, if necessary.
2. Loop the cable to keep the ferrite core in place.
3. Place the open core about 1 inch from the cable connector on the Ilumina end.
4. Press the two halves of the core together until they click shut.
This safeguard is an FCC requirement.
