An interface adapter (Zebra part number 33130) is required to connect the printer’s
RS-232 DB-9 interface to a host computer through an RS-422 or RS-485 interface. A
generic DB-25 adapter can be used.
This illustration shows the cable wiring for interconnecting the DB-9 to the interface
adapter’s DB-25 female connector.

In addition to serial and parallel data ports, a USB 2.0 port (which is USB 1.1- and 1.0-
compatible) is available to connect your printer to the host equipment.
Caution • A qualified service technician must install a jumper on the main logic
board at JP1, Pins 2 and 3 for the RS-422/RS-485 interface adapter to function
properly.
