IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide AS/400 and iSeries LAN Printing Using the Printer Standard Network Port or MarkNet Internal Print Server
4
If you are replacing a printer that used a 3812/3816 Emulation, select the "3812/3816" Emulation. This
emulation only accepts 240 dpi resources (fonts, overlays, etc.) from the host and does not support DBCS
printing.
On MFPs, you can set the print priority of received faxes. Refer to the IPDS Emulation User's Guide for addi-
tional information about Fax Interrupt. This option is found under MENU/Menus > Option Card Menu > IPDS
MENU > EMULATION.
Refer to the IPDS Emulation User's Guide for information on these options and other IPDS MENU settings to
format IPDS jobs.
Note 1: On MFPs, "Copy Interrupt" is supported: an IPDS job can be interrupted by copy jobs and will resume
printing automatically.
Note 2: The supported printers and MFPs do not contain an Advanced Function Common Control Unit
(AFCCU).
Step 6
Verify IPDS Printing
If you have completed the steps above to configure the host and printer, you are ready to print your first IPDS
job.
It is assumed that TCP/IP communications is installed and started on the host.
1
Vary ON the device.
VRYCFG CFGOBJ(IPDSPRT) CFGTYPE(*DEV) STATUS(*ON)
2
Start the writer.
STRPRTWTR IPDSPRT
3
Send an IPDS job from your host system.
4
Observe the printer control panel. When the first job data is received, Busy or IPDS should be displayed in
the printer control panel. If the job does not print, go to Step
5
After the last page of the IPDS job prints, Busy or IPDS will remain displayed until the host or printer ends
the session. This is controlled by the Release Timer on the host or by the IPDS Timeout on the printer.
6
You may want to refer to the IPDS Emulation User's Guide to determine if other IPDS MENU settings need
to be changed.
Step 7
Troubleshooting
If the IPDS job does not print, try the following.
1
If Busy or IPDS is not displayed in the printer control panel or if the printer remains in Ready mode, check
to be sure the printer is connected to the network. Try to PING the printer.
2
If Busy or IPDS is not displayed in the printer control panel or if the printer remains in Ready mode, check
all host and printer settings to be sure they are correct.
3
If you receive an IPDS Negative Acknowledgement (NACK) beginning with '08C1' indicating that the job is
printing outside the printer valid printable area, choose one of the following solutions:
a) Change the Printable Area setting to Physical Page. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select
Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Printable Area.
b) Change your application to position the text within the printable area. Refer to Printable Area in the
IPDS Emulation User's Guide for more information.
