Preface 

I-

O’s 

5760e adaptio/Gateway

 Print Server

®

 

converts IBM’s proprietary SCS data stream into data that 

can be sent to ASCII based printers.   In essence, the adaptio/Gateway makes a standard printer look 
like an IBM host printer to an IBM iSeries midrange or zSeries mainframe host.   

This document describes the installation, basic configuration and operation of the 

adaptio/Gateway

.  

Companion documents describe in detail the configuration of the IBM host, the customization of the I-O 
SCS Printer Emulations and the Configuration Ut

ility’s various screens and configuration parameters.  

These are: 

 

The SCS Reference Manual  

 

The Configuration Utility Help manual 

Each of these documents can be easily accessed on the installation CD or downloaded from 

ftp://ftp.iocorp.com/Host_Print/adaptio/
