Installing adapters You can install the following adapters in your printer: • Internal network adapter • Tri-port adapter • Parallel port adapter An internal network adapter (INA), such as the MarkNetTM S, lets you connect the printer to a local area network (LAN). MarkNet S adapters support the following topologies: • Ethernet 10BaseT and 10Base2 • Ethernet 10/100BaseTX • Token-Ring The tri-port adapter provides connectors for the following: • Serial interface (RS-232C or RS-422), which can also serve as a receive-only fax port • LocalTalk network • An infrared adapter The parallel port adapter provides an additional parallel port. Its 1284C connector requires a 1284 A-C cable. You can purchase a 3 m (9.8 ft) cable meeting these specifications from Lexmark. Refer to the documentation that came with your adapter for more information. Note: Depending on your printer model, you may already have an Ethernet INA installed in connector 1. Connector 2 Connector 1 There are two adapter connectors on your system board: connector 1 and connector 2. Both connectors support network, tri-port, and parallel port adapters. You can install up to two adapters in any combination. If you install two tri-port adapters, your printer can support two serial ports (but only one receive-only fax port), one LocalTalk port, and one infrared port. If you are installing one adapter, install it in connector 1. You can then easily install a second adapter in connector 2. If you already have an adapter installed in connector 2 and you want to install a second adapter, you must first remove the adapter in connector 2, and then install the adapters in connector 1 and connector 2 in sequence. 48 Install memory and network options

Installing
adapters
You can install the following adapters in your printer:
Internal network adapter
Tri-port adapter
Parallel port adapter
An internal network adapter (INA), such as the
MarkNet
TM
S, lets you connect the printer to a local area
network (LAN). MarkNet S adapters support the follow-
ing topologies:
Ethernet 10BaseT and 10Base2
Ethernet 10/100BaseTX
Token-Ring
The tri-port adapter provides connectors for the following:
Serial interface (RS-232C or RS-422), which can also
serve as a receive-only fax port
LocalTalk network
An infrared adapter
The parallel port adapter provides an additional
parallel port. Its 1284C connector requires a 1284 A–C
cable. You can purchase a 3 m (9.8 ft) cable meeting these
specifications from Lexmark.
Refer to the documentation that came with your adapter
for more information.
Note:
Depending on your
printer model, you may already
have an Ethernet INA installed in
connector 1.
There are two adapter connectors on your system board:
connector 1 and connector 2. Both connectors support net-
work, tri-port, and parallel port adapters.
You can install up to two adapters in any combination. If
you install two tri-port adapters, your printer can support
two serial ports (but only one receive-only fax port), one
LocalTalk port, and one infrared port.
If you are installing one adapter, install it in connector 1.
You can then easily install a second adapter in connector 2.
If you already have an adapter installed in connector 2
and you want to install a second adapter, you must first
remove the adapter in connector 2, and then install the
adapters in connector 1 and connector 2 in sequence.
