IPS SOLUTIONS GUIDE
TCP/IP connection: Token Ring
For the Token Ring TCP/IP connection, you must have a Token Ring
card installed inside the AS/400. A router directs the jobs being run
on the Token Ring to the appropriate device.
RS/6000 connections
The RS/6000 connections are remote connections. You may connect
your RS/6000 system to the DocuPrint IPS printers using one of the
options described in this section.
Note that you cannot daisy-chain printers in the RS/6000
environment. Each printer must have its own Micro Channel Adapter
(MCA) card.
The following sections apply to the InfoPrint Manager V 3.1 as well
as PSF/6000, and PSF for AIX systems.
Note:
PSF for AIX has been incorporated into the InfoPrint
Manager V 3.1 product. As of December 1998, PSF/6000 and PSF
for AIX were no longer marketed by IBM as a separate product.
Complete support of PSF for AIX will be withdrawn by January 31,
2001.
InfoPrint Manager stand-alone connection
The simplest way to connect your DocuPrint IPS printers to an RS/
6000 is through a stand-alone system. If you choose this connection,
you may need to offload your resources and data streams from the
host and upload them onto the RS/6000 system. Once loaded onto
the RS/6000, you can print AFP documents to the DocuPrint IPS
printer through InfoPrint Manager.
