AS/400 Configuration,
IPDS Printer
Configuring on AS/400 as an IPDS Printer
NOTE: The IPDS emulation is not supported on the T4M printer.
Use this chapter to configure your printer on AS/400 as an IPDS
printer. To print IPDS, you must install the IPDS option on your
printer. Once configured as an IPDS printer, the printer can also
print AFP™ and SCS, but these datastreams must be converted to
IPDS first.
NOTE: Do not cancel IPDS print jobs by using WebPage cancel.
To cancel IPDS print jobs hold the job on the AS/400 writer
or press the printer Cancel key.
Printing AFP, IPDS, and SCS Files
Printers configured as IPDS only print IPDS files. AFP and SCS
files can be printed, but they must be transformed to IPDS before
printing.
•
AFP files are transformed directly by Print Services Facility™
(PSF/400, an integrated feature of OS/400), which then sends
the transformed file to the printer.
•
SCS files are transformed into IPDS by setting the
IPDSPASTHR parameter to YES (see Figure 32 on page 124
or Figure 33 on page 127). This path yields the best
performance by sending IPDS files directly to the printer with
no transform.
