Re: IBM 1000 series printers (45xx) and AFP

Paul,

According to him they have the IPDS SIMM.  I know I have it on order.
Thanks for your help.  Hopefully this is just premature worrying on my
part....I just remember all the fun I had when we first bought
NP17's.......  :-)

Dear Mike,

I'm assuming your friend wants to send IPDS data directly to the 45xx IBM
printer and is not having trouble with the OS/400 host print transform
function. If this is a correct assumption, the following information might
be useful.

IPDS functionality in these printers is provided by a small board that is
installed inside the printer that adds the IPDS emulation to the printer's
basic HP PCL/PostScript language support. The add-in board has its own IBM
part number and has to be specified as part of the sales ordering process
for it to be included when the printer is shipped.

HTH

Best Regards,

/Paul
