DOCUPRINT IPS SYSTEM
3-4 DOCUPRINT IPS SOLUTIONS GUIDE
DocuPrint IPS architecture
DocuPrint IPS printers function in all IBM environments running the
current level of PSF software. Figure 3-1 shows the overall IPS
series architecture. Each element is defined below:
•
The IBM host is connected to the Sun SPARCstation using
either of these connections:
— Token Ring or Ethernet, which connect the host directly to
the SPARCstation through a TCP/IP connection.
— Bus & Tag, which connects to the HCU. The output of the
HCU is transferred to the Sun SPARCstation through a
SCSI cable.
Daisy-chaining to other devices is also supported except on
the RS/6000.
•
The Xerox software, which resides on the SPARCstation,
creates the rendered bit stream for transmission to the Xerox
IOT.

IPDS command sets and data towers
A command set is a collection of architecture constructs and
associated values. Command sets can be defined across or within
subsets. The DocuPrint IPS printers are compliant with the IPDS
command sets and data towers.
