Overview
Intelligent Printer Data Stream (IPDS) is a bi-directional print data
stream defined by IBM®. IPDS is a sequence of information
transmitted between a host computer and IPDS printer as directed
by a print driver, such as IBM’s Print Service Facility (PSF). In
addition to delivering print description information, the IPDS data
stream performs printer control functions and shares job status
information.
The Xerox FreeFlow® Print Server IPDS software is configured by
means of a Graphical User Interface (GUI), featuring pull-down
menus, tabs, and icons from which to manage the Xerox FreeFlow
Print Server IPDS functions. Xerox FreeFlow Print Server IPDS
supports the TCP/IP and Online Channel interfaces.
