The IBM 6400 Printer Family
•
IGP:
This is an implementation of Intelligent Graphics Processor architecture
and is used commonly to create graphics for optical character recognition
and bar codes. This feature is also designed for those applications which
use the Graphics Language, which is often referred to as PGL.
This feature can co-exist with the IBM Intelligent Printer Data Stream
feature, and/or with either coax/twinax feature or can be used on the
ASCII models.
•
Network Print Server:
Enables you to attach your printer to Local Area Networks using token-
ring or Ethernet protocols. The Network Print Server functions as a
workstation server on your network, enabling your users to submit print
jobs to your printer.
The Network Print Server provides multiple network protocol support that
allows you to submit print jobs from Novell** Netware**, IBM LAN Server,
IBM AIX*, and other TCP/IP networks.
•
Dataproducts Adapter:
Supplies a 50 pin AMP Amplimite HDH-20 data cable connector. This
feature is necessary if you are using the Dataproducts parallel protocol.
•
Ethernet Interface:
Enables you to attach your printer to Local Area Networks using Ethernet
protocols. The Ethernet Interface functions as a workstation server on
your network, enabling your users to submit print jobs to your printer.
•
Power Paper Stacker:
Mechanically directs the paper from the printer to the paper stacking area.
This feature provides consistent paper handling with fewer paper jam
errors.
•
Input Paper Shelf:
Pedestal model only. Provides a shelf to hold a box of paper or forms.
This is a convenient feature if you need to move the printer often.
•
TN5250/TN3270 Emulations:
The TN5250/TN3270 feature enables your printer to communicate with
an IBM host through a Network Interface Card (NIC) using the 5250/3270
datastream. This feature allows you to use an application generated for
the Twinax/Coax emulation to be printed through the NIC.
Users who are converting from Twinax to TN5250 may see some
differences. Please refer to the “Compatibility and Limitations” on page
306 for details.
•
ANSI Emulation:
The ANSI option allows you to print files coded for the ANSI (American
National Standards Institute) printer control language.
