IPDS for Minolta Printers
IPDS & AFP Capability for Minolta Printers, Copiers and MFPs

IPDS Print Server Software to Connect
Minolta Printers, Copiers, and MFPs to
IBM iSeries AS/400s & zSeries S/390 Systems and Provide Full
Support for IPDS Printing

Overview

I-O Corporation's Adaptio IPDS Print Server Software is a program designed to convert native IBM IPDS host print jobs to PCL, allowing them to be printed by Minolta network attached Laser Printers, Copiers and MFPs.

Adaptio can support from 1 to 256 printers per installation and delivers IBM IPDS and SCS printing via IP, providing the control and printer feedback found in an IBM host environment. 

When additional printer support is needed, it is simply upgraded by purchasing additional licenses for the same installation.

Features

  • Connects from 1 to 256 PCL 5e (or higher) compatible Ethernet capable laser printers or MFP devices

  • Supports Advanced Function Printing (AFP) using IPDS protocol

  • Also supports standard Host printing using SCS protocol

  • High speed printing - Supports printers with up to 250 pages/minute per printer

  • Supports over 100 IPDS Fonts

  • Multiple Host support (Power11/10/9/8/7 and all iSeries AS/400, and z14, z13 and all zSeries S/390)

  • Host printing via Telnet (TN5250e and TN3270E) and TCP/IP (PPR/PPD

  • Simple, one step set-up (auto configuration) when using TN5250e or TN3270e

  • Host controlled printing, including error reporting, page range printing etc.

  • I-O's award winning IBM IPDS and SCS printer emulations

  • Increases print speeds 

  • Easy to install and configure using Remote Desktop

  • No need to re-purchase when doing a refresh of printers

High Speed Printing

Adaptio supports high-speed, high performance PCL compatible network attached printers. It supports printing up to 250 pages/minute per printer. Whether printing from an IBM Power System (System i, iSeries, AS/400) or a zSeries - S/390, fast printing can be obtained with laser printers supporting port 9100 printing.

Full Printing Control from IBM Host

Adaptio offers the same reliable, full-function IBM host printing and control found with traditional direct attached Twinax/Coax printers.  IBM host print jobs are not lost in the black hole of "Remote Out Queue" LAN printing. Adaptio provides bi-directional communication between the printer and the IBM host, allowing error reporting and page range printing.

Easy to Use

Simple configuration, management and upgrading using the Adaptio Management Console.  The application does NOT need to be open on the desktop to operate.  Adaptio operates as a "Windows Service" in the background.

Features

Benefits

High Speed Printing, up to 250 ppm

Data conversion is accomplished at the Win10 Adaptio IPDS Gateway and sent to the printer via the Ethernet Network. The Adaptio Gateway takes advantage of high-speed, high-performance printers.

Supports up to 256 Network Attached Printers

Up to 256 printers can be configured as IPDS and/or SCS virtual printers.

IPDS & SCS Printing

IBM host printing to network attached printers. Laser Printers/Copiers/MFPs can be configured as IPDS or SCS Printers.  Dot-matrix printers are configured as SCS Printers.

Full IBM Host Control of Print Jobs

Adaptio IPDS Print Server Software provides a bi-directional communication between the host and the printer, via port 9100 and PJL commands.

Remote Printing

The printers can be attached locally or remotely via a LAN, WAN or VPN network. Printers do not need to be on the same network segment the Adaptio server is installed on.

I-O's Award Winning Printer Emulations

All IPDS and SCS functions such as True Print Complete, IPDS and SCS Duplex, Page Offset, COR, Fonts, Barcode, are fully supported by the 5765e Gateway.
