The IPS printer is supported in the following types of RS/6000 with
AIX configurations, provided that the network is configured properly
and the software prerequisites are installed.
•
Basic configuration in which the RS/6000 running AIX and PSF
for AIX is attached to a LAN using either a Token Ring or
Ethernet network adapter. The printer is attached to the same
segment or ring.
•
Configurations in which the LAN with the printer attached is
connected to the LAN where the RS/6000 print server is
attached, using LAN devices such as routers.
Note: There may be printer performance and throughput
implications with some of these configurations. Your network
management group should be involved in planning this
installation.
This section provides references to detailed information on
configuring an IBM RS/6000 system to print to an IPS printer using a
TCP/IP LAN connection.
PSF/6000 For detailed information on configuring PSF/6000 so it recognizes
your TCP/IP-attached printer, refer to Part 2, "Installing and
Configuring PSF for AIX" in the IBM Print Services Facility for AIX:
