Section 4 Setting Up - AS/400
This section describes how to configure the AXIS 5470e/570/670e for
printing SCS and IPDS data streams using SNA and TCP/IP
transport protocols in the AS/400 environment.
Notes:
A number of protocols and print methods are available. Looking at
SCS over TCP/IP printing, we strongly recommend the TN5250E
alternative. This print method offers superior control and
management features as well as automatic configuration and high
throughput using the AXIS 5470e/570/670e.
If you have decided to use SNA, we recommend the 5494 mode.
Compared to the 3174 mode, this alternative yields better text
formatting options as well as automatic configuration.
Proceed to the setup section that is relevant to your network
environment, as described in the table below:
•
SNA is only available for AXIS 570/670e and AXIS 5470e units with the SNA
option installed. Please refer to Product Model Summary on page 10
•
IPDS is only supported by the AXIS 670e and the AXIS 5470e units with the
IPDS option installed. Please refer to Product Model Summary on page 10.
