o-LAN Print Servers
Print to your LAN printers or digital copiers from your IBM Host.
Axis host-to-LAN print servers provide a flexible and cost-effective way to print
to LAN printers or digital copiers from AS/400 or Mainframe systems. In addit-
ion to support for popular protocols and operating systems, such as NetWare,
UNIX and Windows, Axis host-to-LAN print servers deliver world class support
for IBM host system printing. The flexibility to choose between multiple print
methods including TN3270E and TN5250E, as well as SCS and IPDS data
streams, makes Axis the ideal solution for the enterprise network. Axis host-to-
LAN print servers enable high-speed printing over Ethernet, Fast Ethernet and
Token Ring networks without the need for application changes, host-based
conversion software or intermediate servers.
P
Migrate without com prom ises
With simultaneous support for SNA and TCP/IP, Axis host-to-LAN print servers
offer an excellent migration story as you transition to TCP/IP-based networking.
The same print server will work in both environments without compromising
control and visibility of the network printer. True bi-directional transport proto-
cols assure a tight and controlled flow of status and data in a direct path between
the IBM host system and the printer. Users get the same functionality as from a
traditional IBM printer connected over coax or twinax including features such as
error recovery, exception notification, job control and end-of-job notification.
Free host system resources
Axis solution is based on the Axis ETRAX 32-bit RISC processor for maximum
performance. The concept of distributed data conversion deliver great scalability
and helps freeing host system resources for more critical tasks improving overall
system throughput. Any matrix, laser and even some ink-jet printers may be used
as well as digital copiers.
Take full advantage of your digital copier investm ent
Axis host-to-LAN print servers come with built in support for digital copiers
eliminating the need to modify IBM or UNIX host applications or install addi-
tional drivers. With support for finishing options such as stapling, hole punching
and copying, any user on the network can enjoy the flexibility and power of a
digital copier.
Easy to Use on Multiple Platform s
Axis host-to-LAN print servers support OS/400, OS/390, Windows NT,
Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95/98/2000, OS/2, NetWare, more than
20 versions of UNIX and more. In addition, they are easy to set up and will auto-
configure to the AS/400.
