1. Introduction
The Intermate LX T-04 is a protocol converter, which makes it possible to
connect the Lexmark 23xx Plus, Lexmark 4227 and Lexmark 4227 Plus
printers to an IBM 5250 (Twinax) environment.
Theory of Operation
Print data from an IBM host is in a format that cannot be recognized by a PC
type printer. The Intermate LX T-04 converts IBM control and character codes
to ASCII control commands and characters, which are recognizable by the
Lexmark matrix printer. Together, the Intermate LX T-04 and the attached
printer appears to the IBM host as an original IBM twinax printer.
ASCII Printer Driver
The Intermate LX T-04 can utilize many of the functions resident in the
attached printer, such as underlining, page formatting and paper source
selections. The control commands for these functions reside in the Printer
Drivers. These cover the standard printer types. See Appendix A for a list of
available Printer Drivers.
