An
External Twinax Printer interface for Give PCL5e Laser Printers full IPDS
Printing Capability
Overview
The I-O 4465TX turns
virtually any PCL5e compatible laser or ink jet printer into an economic, feature-rich
IPDS AS/400 printer. It attaches to the printers parallel port and provides a Twinax connection to the
IBM AS/400 system. The 4465TX is conveniently configured through on-board DIP switches and
Host/PC download commands. If you need an IPDS
printer and would like to connect over Ethernet, the
I-O
Corporation 5765e AFP/IPDS
Print Server Gateway and the I-O Corporation Adaptio
IPDS Print Server Software are your options.
The 4465TX can be operated in IBM 4028 or 3812/16 emulation mode and supports all IPDS
towers including Presentation Text, IO Image, IM Image, Graphics, Bar Codes, Page
Segments, Overlays, Loaded Fonts, and Device Control.
Equipped with an additional parallel input port, the 4465TX allows the attached printer to
be shared automatically between the IBM AS/400 and a PC or LAN, thus doubling the capacity
of the printer.
In addition, five LEDs on top of the 4465TX aid in troubleshooting and provide quick
problem resolution and diagnostics. If you DO NOT
need the ability to print AFP or IPDS print jobs, please click on the link

TxP/CxP Plus for SCS data stream printing.
