Configuring The Host; Using The Interface Card - Intermec EasyCoder 4630 User Manual

The internal coax/twinax interface card provides the Intermec 4630 and
4830 printers with the ability to communicate with an AS/400 or System 3X
host system. The interface card is easy to set up and has many advanced
features.

Configuring the Host

You must configure the host with a cable address and device ID for
the printer and set the twinax address on the interface card before you
can communicate in Twinax mode. See your system operator or
system manuals for details.
The 4630 and 4830 printers use Intermec Printer Language (IPL) to
print labels. As a result, a printer emulation device ID should not be
critical; however, Intermec recommends that you use the ID of a 5256
printer. The following printer emulation IDs can also be used to
maintain compatibility with previous installations: 5224, 5225, or 4214.
The default host language should match the language used by the host
so that the translations match.

Using the Interface Card

The coax/twinax interface card is intended for installation by
Intermec certified service personnel only. For more information about
