Preface

Thank you for purchasing the AXIS 5470e/570/670e Network Print Server. This product has 
been developed to connect your printers anywhere in your network, allowing all network users 
access to the shared printer resources.

About this manual

This manual provides introductory information as well as detailed instructions on how to set up 
and manage the AXIS 5470e/570/670e in various network environments. It is intended for 
everyone involved in installing and managing the AXIS 5470e/570/670e. To fully benefit from 
the manual, you should be familiar with basic networking principles.

This manual is applicable for the AXIS 5470e/570/670e, with software release 6.20 or later.

About Axis

Axis Communications is dedicated to providing innovative solutions for network-connected 
computer peripherals. Since the start in 1984, it has been one of the fastest growing companies in 
the market and is now a leader in its field.

ThinServer™ Technology - 

enables Axis’ products to act as intelligent file server independent 

ThinServer devices. A ThinServer device is a network server which includes “thin” embedded 
server software capable of simultaneous multiprotocol communication, scalable RISC hardware 
and a built-in Web server which allows easy access and management via any standard Web 
browser. The ThinServer technology makes it possible to connect any electronic device to the 
network, thus providing “Access to everything”.

Today, Axis Communications is offering six major ThinServer product lines consisting of:

Network Print Servers - 

offer a powerful and cost-efficient method for sharing printer resources 

in your network. They connect to any standard printer, featuring high performance, simple 
management and easy upgrading across the network. The print servers are available in Ethernet, 
Fast Ethernet and Token Ring versions.

IBM Mainframe and S/3x - AS/400 Print Servers and Protocol Converters - 

include a wide 

range of LAN, coax and twinax attached print servers for the IBM host environment. By 
emulating IBM devices, these servers provide conversion of the IPDS, SCS and 3270DS data 
streams to the major ASCII printer languages.
