Installation and Setup
i5/OS® (System i) Setup
You must set several parameters for resident outline font support.
If you do not set these parameters properly, jobs submitted from
i5/OS® (System i) expecting resident outline fonts may fail or print
blank pages. If your host is a System i running i5/OS® and you
require resident outline font support, the recommended setup is:
•
On the i5/OS® host, set the Resident Font parameter in the
PSF Configuration object to *YES.
•
In the IPS Manager, ensure Enhanced Font Support is set to
Enabled.
•
In the IPS Manager, load the AFP fonts using the Manage
Fonts Dialog.
Defining a Logical Printer
Before using Xerox FreeFlow® Print Server IPDS to process IPDS
data streams, the host must have a printer defined for Xerox
FreeFlow® Print Server IPDS with the following requirements:
•
For TCP/IP connectivity, the Internet Protocol (IP) address and
port number of the printer must match the IP address and port
number of the printer. Valid values are 5001 through 65535.
•
For channel connectivity, the unit address specified for the
host printer definition must be a unique value and must match
the unit address specified on the IPS Manager.
•
For z/OS® (MVS), the printer must be defined as an AFP-type
device.
TCP/IP and channel connectivity can be established in the IPS
Manager System pull-down menu, System Configuration dialog
box.
Verifying the Installation
The following steps should be completed for a successful
installation of the Xerox FreeFlow® Print Server IPDS software,
and proper queue and printer setup:
•
Install the IPS Manager software. The Xerox Service
Representative performs this task.
•
Ensure that the IPDS Interpreter license file has been loaded,
and that IPDS is active and enabled in the print server Feature
Manager.
•
Ensure a streaming print queue is defined on the print server
for your system. You can view this queue by using the print
