Configuration of Ethernet Type III Module

Epson's "low-cost" Connect-It Ethernet Interface used a manual configuration scheme and and no web interface. The

Type III module can be identified by the red or blue 4 position DIP switch visible on the front of the adapter

DS-1 Off ('On' is used to generate a configuration report)

DS-2 N/A

DS-3 N/A

DS-4 N/A

Jumper Settings (in strip together on circuit board)

JP-1 baud

JP-2 baud

JP-3 DHCP (default: on)

JP-4 factory use (normally off)

Baud rate settings (set using combination of jumper 1 and jumper 2, above)

9600

baud: JP1-Off, JP-2-Off

19200

baud: JP1-On, JP-2-Off

38400

baud: JP1-Off, JP-2-On

Note: The Ethernet III module only supports 9600, 19200 and 38400 baud rates.

The printer and the Ethernet III module must have the same baud rates to communicate.

Get the initial settings of the Printer

Run the printer self test (hold down the feed button while turning on the printer). The printer will print a list of initial settings

including interface type and buffer capacity. Verify that the interface is "serial" for this type of Ethernet adapter and that

the baud rate is the same as is set on the card. If necessary, change the baud rate on the printer (using the

or the baud rate on the module (using jumpers), so they agree.

Get the initial settings of the Ethernet Adapter Card

Turn off power on printer. Change the dip switch 1 to ON. Turn printer on. The printer will print a list of including MAC

address, current IP address and DIP switch and jumper settings.

Note: if you want to enable DHCP for this card, you must place a jumper on JP3. JP3 is located on the circuit board near

the large black connector. DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, a network service that automatically

assigns IP addresses to devices.

Installation Steps

1. Disconnect power and other cables from the EPSON printer, and remove the printer DIP switch cover plate.

2. Remove the existing interface board from the printer by unscrewing 2 screws.

3. Properly align and push the new module into the printer. Fasten the two mounting screws through the faceplate of the

new interface.
