Connecting to a LocalTalk network (optional)
If you have an existing LocalTalk network, you can add your printer to it and
share the printer with other Mac OS–based computers on the network.
IMPORTANT
You can either connect the printer directly to your computer with
a serial cable or connect it to a LocalTalk network with a LocalTalk
connecting kit. You cannot connect the printer both ways at the same time.
1 Obtain a LocalTalk connecting kit.
LocalTalk connecting kits come in many varieties. A kit usually contains one
connector box and one LocalTalk cable. Two LocalTalk connecting kits are
available from Apple. For information about these kits, see “Apple Printer
Supplies and Accessories” in Appendix A.
2Plug the connector box into the interface port on the printer.
3Connect the printer to the network in one of these two ways:
m To co nnect the printer to the end of a LocalTalk network, use the LocalTalk
cable to connect the empty socket of the nearest devices connector box to
the printers connector box.
m To co nnect the printer between two devices on a LocalTalk network,
disconnect one LocalTalk cable from the connector box or the device
immediately to the left or right of the printer and plug it into the new
printers connector box. Then use the new LocalTalk cable to connect the
free socket on the printers connector box to the socket you freed on the
other devices connector box.
