+# Terminating Resistors

+A CAN bus should have two 120 ohm resistors between the CANH and CANL
+wires. Ideally, one resistor located at each the end of the bus.
+
+Note that some devices have a builtin 120 ohm resistor (for example,
+the "Waveshare Raspberry Pi CAN hat" has a soldered on resistor that
+can not be easily removed). Some devices do not include a resistor at
+all. Other devices have a mechanism to select the resistor (typically
+by connecting a "pin jumper"). Be sure to check the schematics of all
+devices on the CAN bus to verify that there are two and only two 120
+Ohm resistors on the bus.
+
+To test that the resistors are correct, one can remove power to the
+printer and use a multi-meter to check the resistance between the CANH
+and CANL wires - it should report ~60 ohms on a correctly wired CAN
+bus.
