Using Network Printer Resource Utility
Network Printer Resource Utility (NPRU) is a utility that enables administrators to
download fonts and PCL macros (overlays) to the printer. Using NPRU, the network
administrator can identify PCL Intellifonts, TrueType fonts, overlays, or PostScript Type
1 fonts on a workstation and download them to temporary or permanent DRAM on the
printer or to Flash memory or a hard drive, if these options are available on the printer.
The network administrator can provide a network address for the NPRU data base of
downloaded resources to workstation users. Those users can then use the printer
driver to connect to the data base, enabling them to select downloaded fonts and
overlays from within their applications.
The NPRU is a separate program that uses the printer driver programs to perform the
download function. For more information about using NPRU, refer to the README file
that is supplied with the utility.
Obtaining Network Printer Resource Utility
NPRU is shipped with the OS/2 printer drivers. To obtain other versions or updates,
follow these steps:

Company Home Page at http://www.can.ibm.com/ibmprinters.
2. At the IBM Home Page, use the Search tool and search for Network Printer 24 or

4. Use the menu selections to find freeware, printer drivers, software fixes, or
documentation that you want to obtain.
Using Print Services Facility Software with IPDS
The combination of Print Services Facility software and the Intelligent Presentation Data
Stream (IPDS) provides access to host applications and enhanced error recovery. With
the IPDS feature installed, print jobs using IPDS do not need to be converted into other
data streams, such as PCL.
The following Print Services Facility (PSF) software applications provide print support
for this printer:
Ÿ PSF/MVS V2.1.0, V2.1.1, and V2.2.0
Ÿ PSF/VSE V2.1.1
Ÿ PSF/VM V2.1.1
