InfoPrint Intelligent Printer Data Stream:
Provides the ability to create forms, overlays, and graphics. IPDS also
provides compatibility when replacing printers such as the IBM 4234
Models 12 and 11. This feature also supports many versions of the Print
Services Facility* (PSF*). This feature requires the Coax/Twinax or
Ethernet card attachment.
•
Code V:
This is an implementation of the Intelligent Graphics Processor
architecture and is used commonly to create graphics for optical
character recognition and bar codes. This feature is also designed for
those applications which use the Quality Micro Systems, Inc. graphics
language, which is often referred to as the QMS Code V Magnum
emulation and those applications that use the Code V Graphics
Language. The Code V Graphics Language is often referred to as VGL.
•
IGP:
This is an implementation of Intelligent Graphics Processor architecture
and is used commonly to create graphics for optical character recognition
and bar codes. This feature is also designed for those applications which
use the Graphics Language, which is often referred to as PGL.
This feature can co-exist with the InfoPrint Intelligent Printer Data Stream
feature, and/or with either coax/twinax feature or can be used on the
ASCII models.
•
TN5250/TN3270 Emulations:
The TN5250/TN3270 feature enables your printer to communicate with
an IBM host through a Network Interface Card (NIC) using the
5250/3270 datastream. This feature allows you to use an application
generated for the Twinax/Coax emulation to be printed through the NIC.
Users who are converting from Twinax to TN5250 may see some
differences. Please refer to the "Compatibility and Limitations" on page
306 for details.
•
ANSI Emulation:
The ANSI option allows you to print files coded for the ANSI (American
National Standards Institute) printer control language.
•
Network Print Server:
Enables you to attach your printer to Local Area Networks using token-
ring or Ethernet protocols. The Network Print Server functions as a
workstation server on your network, enabling your users to submit print
jobs to your printer.
The Network Print Server provides multiple network protocol support that
allows you to submit print jobs from Novell** Netware**, LAN Server,
AIX*, and other TCP/IP networks.
