one printer (hardwire ) on tower

i prefer work both hardwire but i also can wireless , i have red and blue cables
how can i connect them both thru the PC ?
The PC software is designed to communicate to a single COM port on the PC. To connect both to PC, they must both be wireless and placed at different locations using a 4520BU connected to the PC and a 4520B2 at each printer. The PC will setup a COM port to communicate to both printers. AC power to the 4520B2 and a serial cable between the 4520B2 and a printer. The current 6042S printers include the serial cable as did the previous 6038S printer model.
If you still want both printers hardwired to the PC, you will need to develop a splitter cable from the PC to each printer. Since this is RS232 serial data comm, the PC circuitry will probably have issue supplying enough signal to two printers and the 50 meter distance.
