AXIS 5400+ / AXIS 5600+ User’s Manual
Features and Benefits
Reliability
The print server provides high performance and reliability combined with
low power consumption. The electronic circuits are based on the AXIS
ETRAX 100 LX chip, which comprises an integrated 32 bit RISC processor
and associated network controllers.
Flexibility
The print server supports printing in all major computer systems and
environments, including five different print methods in the TCP/IP
environment. The integrated IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) function
allows for printing from LAN to LAN via a WAN, such as the Internet.
Speed
The AXIS ETRAX 100 LX chip supports data transfer rates of up to 200
Mbit/s (100 Mbit Ethernet full duplex).
Easy to Install
The print server installs, operates and is managed in a reliable and easy
fashion.
Security
You can assign a password to restrict login and printer access. It is also
possible to disable protocols and to configure a secure mode (https).
Monitoring
The internal print server Web pages and AXIS ThinWizard (3.0 and up)
allow you to continuously monitor printer status. The Web pages are used
to monitor single Axis units while AXIS ThinWizard can be used to
monitor multiple Axis units.
Through e-mail notification, the printer administrator can be notified by
e-mail whenever an event that requires human intervention occurs in a
printer. The e-mail contains a short and concise description of the event.
Future Proof
The firmware stored in the print server Flash memory can be upgraded
over the network. This allows you to quickly update and enhance its
operational features when new print server software becomes available.
NetWare Packet
Signature
The print server supports NetWare Packet Signature Level 1, 2, 3, which
protects servers and clients using the NetWare Core Protocol
™
services.
NCP packet signature prevents packet forgery by requiring the server and
the client to sign each NCP packet. See your Novell NetWare
documentation for detailed information.
