printing from IBM computers on hp LaserJet printers
The IPDS 100 expands the capabilities of your HP laserJet printer to handle both
network and IBM AS/400 or mainframe jobs.
Do you find that the only reason you have certain printers taking up office space and
requiring maintenance effort and investment is because they are handling print jobs from a
different system. Wouldn't it help if you could rationalize your printer pool and decouple
your printer hardware from software and operating system considerations, and quickly avail
of all the benefits for which you have chosen HP laserJet printers.
The IPDS 100 enables distributed printing of AFP /IPDS jobs from IBM mainframe
and midrange computers on monochrome and color workgroup HP laserJet printers in
your network, giving you full flexibility and helping you take full advantage of your printer
investment.
how IPDS 100 works
The IPDS 100 DIMM is easily installed in a free memory slot in your HP laserJet
printer. When the printer is powered on again, IPDS is among the active languages,
and the printer is ready to receive IPDS jobs using the TCP/IP protocol. The automatic
language switching on your HP laserJet printer examines incoming print jobs and selects
the appropriate page description language, whether it is PCl, PostScript or IPDS, so you
can use your HP laserJet printer for both your usual network printing and for your IBM
AS/400 or mainframe jobs.
HP Chai technology, in current HP laserJet printers, includes an embedded web server on
the printer, which lets you configure, manage and troubleshoot the IPDS 100 using
a standard web browser, wherever your printer is located in your local area network.
