AFP SUMMARY
2-6 IPS SOLUTIONS GUIDE
PSF platforms
You have several options for connecting your DocuPrint IPS printers
to the host. Each platform determines how IBM’s Print Services
Facility (PSF) program interacts with the DocuPrint IPS printer.
PSF is a print driver and resource manager that resides on the host.
You can connect the host system to printers either locally or remotely
using any of the platforms shown in this table:

1. The minimum levels listed are for TCP/IP connectivity using
either Token Ring or Ethernet.
Mainframe (System/
370 or System/390) MVS PSF/MVS V2.2
VM PSF/VM V2.1
VSE PSF/VSE V2.2
AS/400 OS/400 PSF/400 V3.1
RS/6000 AIX InfoPrint Manager V3.1

PSF for AIX V 1.2, or
2. IBM withdrew PSF/6000 and PSF for AIX from marketing.
Customers must now use InfoPrint Manager as it is IBM’s
replacement product. IPS shall support InfoPrint Manager to a
functionality level equivalent to PSF for AIX.
