TCP/IP TN3270E Printing

Configuring the
Mainframe host
The following procedures describe how to configure the AXIS 5470e
for SCS, 3270DS and IPDS printing, using TCP/IP TN3270E.
This is achieved by establishing communication between the AXIS
5470e and Mainframe host via a TN3270E server, using the TCP/IP
transport protocol for the SCS, 3270 and IPDS data streams, as
illustrated below:
Note:
IPDS is only available for AXIS 5470e units with the IPDS option installed. Please
refer to Product Model Summary, on page 7
Configuring for TN3270E printing is described in four separate stages:
• Configuring the IBM Mainframe Host system
• Configuring the AXIS 5470e
• Configuring the TN3270E server
• Verifying the communication
Consult your TN3270E server documentation and make sure that the
appropriate VTAM host system definitions are set up for
mainframe-to-TN3270E server SNA communication.
