I-O 5735e Ethernet-in/-out IPDS Print Server
I-O 5735e Ethernet-in, Ethernet-out AFP/IPDS - SCS gateway print server
The I-O 5735e IPDS/SCS Printer Gateway is a high speed Ethernet-in, Ethernet-out AFP/IPDS - SCS gateway print server designed to convert native IBM host print jobs to PCL, allowing them to be printed by a laser printer on the LAN. Supporting one printer, the 5735e delivers IBM AFP/IPDS and SCS printing via TCP/IP, providing the control and printer feedback found in an IBM host environment.

Features | Benefits |
---|---|
High Speed Printing, 100+ ppm | The I-O 5735e takes advantage of high-speed, high-performance printers without the bottleneck of the parallel port. |
AFP/IPDS printing over Ethernet | Both AFP/IPDS and standard (SCS) host print jobs can be seamlessly printed over a LAN. |
Enhanced Telnet 5250 (TN5250e) and Telnet 3270 (TN3270e) | Communicates with the IBM Host using native TCP/IP. |
True Print Complete | Users are notified when the print job is finished taking the guess work out of printing. |
Duplex | Printing can be done on both sides of a page. The full functionality of a duplex printer can be utilized. |
Page Offset Functions | Provides more flexibility in page positioning with no need to modify host applications. |
Supports over 100 AFP/IPDS Fonts | There are more fonts to choose from than other AFP/IPDS interfaces. |
On-board FLASH Memory | Allows for field upgrades providing the latest new features from I-O. |
Printer error reporting to the host | Prevents loss of host print data by providing the same level of print status reporting as a twinax or coax printer. |
Page range printing | Permits users to print select page ranges from large documents and reports. |
Off-loading of Data Conversion | Eliminates unnecessary overhead by converting EBCDIC data to ASCII data directly on the I-O 5735e. |
True IBM printer emulations | Permits full-function host printing on the attached LAN printer. |
Simultaneous, multi-host printing | Maximizes printer utilization by supporting concurrent printing not only from the host but from Novell, Windows, OS/2, UNIX, etc. |
10BaseT and 100BaseT | Provides versatility in attaching to LANs at different speeds. |
Auto configuration | Installs in minutes. |
