B Host Serial and Parallel Interface Configuration Introduction The D640 printer is equipped with two standard communication interfaces used to connect to a host computer: • Bitronics (Parallel) interface • RS-232C serial interface With the addition of an HP JetDirect EX interface, purchased separately, you can use the printer on a local area network (LAN). The JetDirect EX interface connects the network to the Bitronics interface of the printer. (If you purchased the HP JetDirect EX interface, you'll find detailed directions included in the JetDirect EX Configuration Guide.)
