Features and Benefits
Reliability
The AXIS 5600+ print server provides high performance and
reliability combined with low power consumption. The electronic
circuits are based on the AXIS ETRAX100 chip, which comprises an
integrated 32 bit RISC processor and associated network controllers.
Flexibility
The AXIS 5600+ 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 over the Internet.
Speed
The AXIS ETRAX 100 chip has been specifically designed for LAN
products and benefits users with a faster throughput than a direct PC-
to-printer connection. With a sustained data throughput of more than
1 Mbyte per second, the AXIS 5600+ is fast. High speed Centronics
communication such as ECP, Hewlett-Packard Fast Mode, High
Speed and IBM Fast Byte is supported.
Easy to Install
Using the available Axis installation tools, you can install the AXIS
5600+ into any of the supported networking environments in just a
few minutes.
Security
You can assign passwords to restrict both login and printer access.
