>From the archives it looks like the IBM 4247 printer can support EITHER:

  an ethernet adapter that does *ASCII

or 

  an ethernet adapter that does *IPDS

My customer has the *IPDS ethernet adapter but really wants to do *ASCII.

Their PO reports fit on special forms.  

Can the 4247 be configured as *IPDS and print *ASCII without undue pgming?
