IPDS
Print Server Software to Connect
Brother Printers, Copiers, and MFPs to
IBM iSeries AS/400s & zSeries S/390 Systems
and Provide Full Support for IPDS
Printing
Overview
I-O Corporation's Adaptio IPDS
Print Server Software is a
program
designed to convert native IBM IPDS host print jobs to PCL, allowing them to be
printed by Kyocera network attached Laser Printers,
Copiers and MFPs.
Adaptio can support from 1 to 256 printers
per installation and
delivers IBM IPDS and SCS printing via IP, providing the
control and printer feedback found in an IBM host environment.
When additional printer support is needed, it is simply upgraded
by purchasing additional licenses for the same installation.
Features
-
Connects
from 1 to 256 PCL 5e
(or higher) compatible Ethernet capable laser printers or MFP
devices
-
Supports Advanced Function
Printing (AFP) using IPDS protocol
-
Also supports standard Host
printing using SCS protocol
-
High
speed printing - Supports printers with up to
250 pages/minute
per printer
-
Supports over 100
IPDS
Fonts
-
Multiple Host support
(Power11/10/9/8/7 and all iSeries AS/400, and z14, z13 and all zSeries S/390)
-
Host printing via Telnet
(TN5250e and TN3270E) and TCP/IP (PPR/PPD)
-
Simple, one step set-up
(auto configuration) when using TN5250e or TN3270e
-
Host
controlled printing, including error reporting, page range
printing etc.
-
I-O's award winning IBM
IPDS
and SCS printer emulations
-
Increases print speeds
-
Easy to install and
configure using Remote Desktop
-
No need to
re-purchase when doing a refresh of printers
High Speed PrintingAdaptio supports
high-speed, high performance PCL compatible network attached printers.
It supports printing up to 250 pages/minute per printer. Whether printing
from an IBM Power System (System i, iSeries, AS/400) or a zSeries -
S/390, fast printing can be obtained with laser printers supporting port
9100 printing.
Full
Printing Control from IBM HostAdaptio offers the same reliable, full-function IBM host printing and
control found with traditional direct
attached Twinax/Coax printers.
IBM host print jobs are not lost in the black hole of
"Remote Out Queue" LAN printing. Adaptio provides bi-directional communication between the printer and the
IBM host, allowing error reporting and page range printing.
Easy to UseSimple configuration, management and
upgrading using the Adaptio Management Console. The application
does NOT need to be open on the desktop to operate. Adaptio
operates as a "Windows Service" in the background.

Features |
Benefits |
|
High Speed Printing, up to 250 ppm |
Data conversion is
accomplished at the 5765e Gateway and sent to the printer via the Ethernet
Network. The Adaptio Gateway takes advantage of high-speed, high-performance
printers. |
|
Supports
up to 10 Network
Attached Printers |
Up to ten (10)
printers can be configured as IPDS and/or SCS virtual
printers. |
|
IPDS
& SCS Printing |
IBM host printing
to network attached printers.
Laser Printers/Copiers/MFPs can be configured as IPDS or SCS
Printers. Dot-matrix printers
are configured as SCS Printers. |
|
Full
IBM Host Control of Print Jobs |
The
5765e Gateway provides
a bi-directional communication between the host and the printer,
via port 9100 and PJL commands. |
|
Remote
Printing |
The printers can
be attached locally or remotely via a WAN or VPN network. Printers
do not need to be directly attached or
physically next to the 5765e Gateway. |
|
One
USB Port |
One laser or
dot-matrix printer can be directly attached to the
5765e Gateway for IBM
host print jobs. |
|
I-O's
Award Winning Printer Emulations |
All IPDS and
SCS functions such as True Print Complete, IPDS and SCS
Duplex, Page Offset, COR, Fonts, Barcode, are fully supported by
the 5765e Gateway. |
