1.1 About This Guide

Thank you for purchasing the Card for IPDS which provides emulation support for Intelligent Printer
Data Stream (IPDS). This provides high quality IBM host connectivity print output. With the appropriate
adapter and host software, your printer becomes an IBM host workstation printer capable of printing AFP
or IPDS documents from an AS/400, iSeries, System/370, System/390, zSeries, or InfoPrint Manager.
Unless otherwise stated, the term "printer" covers both printers and Multifunction Products
(MFPs).
This guide contains information to assist you in understanding the IPDS MENU settings and IPDS
function support.
If you need information on configuring the printer and host settings to receive IPDS jobs, refer to the
IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide.
Information on how to install the Card is on separate documentation shipped with your printer. Refer to
the documentation that was shipped with your printer for information on how to install the optional
firmware cards.
If you need basic information about your printer setup and printer operation, please refer to the printer's
specific documentation.
