Connecting the interface and power supply cables
Connect the PT-9200DX to the computer according to the instructions below.
When connecting to the serial port:
1Make sure that both the PT-9200DX and the computer are turned off.
2Connect one end of the enclosed serial interface cable to the serial connector (IOIOI) of the PT-9200DX and the other
end of the cable to the serial port of the computer. For a Macintosh®connection, connect the PT-9200DX to either the
modem or the printer port (preferably the modem port).
.The serial (RS-232C) ports of some computers are shaped so that the serial interface cable cannot be connected.
If this is the case, use a commercially available adapter.
When connecting to the USB port:
.Read the installation procedure on pages 12 through 19, and then follow the instructions to install the printer.
1Connect one end of the enclosed USB interface cable to the USB connector ( ) of the PT-9200DX and the other
end of the cable to the USB port of the computer.
.Do not connect the PT-9200DX to the computer using both the serial and the USB interface cables, otherwise
the PT-9200DX may be damaged.
.When making a USB connection through a hub, a proper connection may not be possible due to the type of hub
used. If printing is not possible with a hub connection, try connecting the PT-9200DX directly to the computer
using the USB interface cable.
2Insert the power cord into the PT-9200DX.
3Insert the power cord plug into an AC outlet equipped with a grounding terminal. Some locations may require the use
of an adapter provided with a grounding wire. Connect this wire to the ground terminal.
