Seamless AS/400 to LAN
Thermal Bar Code Printing

Overview

The I-O 5430B and 5431B Bar Code Print Servers are single-port, multi-protocol print servers designed to provide support for specialty printers, such as Zebra, Eltron, Genicom, Monarch, Sato, Datamax, Intermec as well as other bar code and specialty printers bar code label printers over Ethernet networks from IBM AS/400 - iSeries, and Mainframe - zSeries host systems. 

If you need direct attachment as twinax or coax printers, click here for the I-O 4440 Twinax / Coax Thermal Bar Code Interface.

Highlights

bullet

Features Benefits
AS/400 printing over Ethernet Allows AS/400 print jobs to be seamlessly printed over a LAN.
Enhanced Telnet 5250 (TN5250e) Communicate with up to ten AS/400's using native TCP/IP.
Printer error reporting to the AS/400 Prevents loss of AS/400 print data by providing the same level of print status reporting as a 5250 twinax printer.
Page range printing from the AS/400 Permits users to print select page ranges from large documents and reports.
Auto configuration (One step setup) Installs in minutes using native TCP/IP, avoiding complex software configurations.
Offloading of Data Conversion Eliminates unnecessary AS/400 or PC overhead by converting EBCDIC data directly on the I-O 5430B/5431B. Host Print Transform is no longer required.
True IBM printer emulations Permits full-function AS/400 printing on the attached LAN printer.
Simultaneous, multi-host printing
Maximizes printer utilization by supporting concurrent printing not only from multiple AS/400's but from Novell, Windows NT, Windows 95, OS/2, UNIX, etc.
10BaseT and 100BaseT Protects print server investment when upgrading the LAN to 100 Mbps.
Powerful RISC processor Takes advantage of the LAN printer's maximum print speed even when processing AS/400 jobs.
Unique support of proprietary bar code label printer languages Print self-tests, diagnostics, dumps, etc., directly to any attached label printer for convenient customization and trouble-shooting.
