Main Features
Reliability
The Axis NPS 650 hardware provides high performance and reliability
combined with low power consumption. It is based on the Axis ETRAX
chip with an integrated 32 bit RISC CPU and Token Ring controller.
Flexibility
It supports NetWare, Microsoft and IBM networks, and TCP/IP
simultaneously. Five different print methods are supported for Unix
systems. You may connect and print on up to three printers
simultaneously.
Speed
The sustained throughput exceeds 250 kbytes per second. High-speed
Centronics communication such as Hewlett-Packard Fast Mode is
supported.
Easy to Install
Use PCONSOLE for NetWare Installation, Axis Print Utility for
Windows and OS/2, and the supplied axinstall script for Unix systems.
Logical Printers
This unique Axis concept allows you to perform auto ASCII to PostScript
conversions, use different character sets, or select multiple bins and form
sizes on the same printer.
Accounting
The accounting function lets you keep track of the last ten print jobs.
Security
You may set up passwords for all users, restricting both log in and printer
access.
