Psf Platforms - Xerox DocuPrint 180 Solution Manual

AFP SUMMARY

PSF platforms

2-6
You have several options for connecting your DocuPrint IPS printers
to the host. Each platform determines how IBM's Print Services
Facility (PSF) program interacts with the DocuPrint IPS printer.
PSF is a print driver and resource manager that resides on the host.
You can connect the host system to printers either locally or remotely
using any of the platforms shown in this table:
Table 2-1. Supported PSF levels

Mainframe (System/
370 or System/390)

1. The minimum levels listed are for TCP/IP connectivity using
either Token Ring or Ethernet.
2. IBM withdrew PSF/6000 and PSF for AIX from marketing.
Customers must now use InfoPrint Manager as it is IBM's
replacement product. IPS shall support InfoPrint Manager to a
functionality level equivalent to PSF for AIX.
