AS/400 and iSeries LAN Printing Using the Printer Standard Network Port or MarkNet Internal Print Server · PSF/400 V3R1-R3, V3R6-R7, V4R1-R5, V5R1-R4, or greater With the optional Card for IPDS/SCS/TNe and a LAN print server installed, the printer can receive, process, and print AFP/IPDS print jobs over TCP/IP from the following IBM software: The information below will lead you through the steps for setting up the AS/400, or iSeries, and the printer to print IPDS jobs over a LAN. The printer must be configured with a Standard Network port or MarkNet internal LAN print server. Refer to the IPDS User's Guide for detailed instructions on using the control panel to select and change option settings. Steps The following steps must be completed to begin printing IPDS jobs. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Choose a Printer Port for Use in the Device Description Create a PSFCFG Create a Printer Device Description Configure the Printer's Print Server TCP/IP Settings Configure the Printer's Network Job Timeout Select the IPDS Emulation, Bar Code Size, Host Resolution, and Fax Interrupt Settings Verify IPDS Printing Troubleshooting Step 1 Choose a Printer Port for Use in the Device Description Several printer ports are available for receiving IPDS jobs when using the printer Standard Network port or the MarkNet internal LAN print server. The printer port will be used in one of the following steps. Port descriptions: · Port 5001 - This is the recommended port selection for receiving IPDS jobs. This port should only be used for receiving IPDS jobs. The printer's Network Job Timeout and Job Buffering settings are automatically set to the correct settings for receiving IPDS jobs on this port. This port is recommended when a significant performance impact is seen when downloading IPDS resources for each job. With the proper configuration settings on the host and printer, the IPDS resources can be saved in the printer memory while the printer is printing non-IPDS jobs. Port 9100 - This port can receive PCL, Postscript, or IPDS jobs. In order to print IPDS jobs, the printer's Network Job Timeout must be manually set to "0" (or to "Disable") and Job Buffering must be manually set to "OFF". These settings also affect printing of non-IPDS jobs. · How to find the Network Job Timeout Option (which is also known as End-of-Job Timeout) on the control panel: On printers, press MENU and then select Settings > Setup Menu > Timeouts > Network Job Timeout. On MFPs, touch Menus and then select Settings > General Settings > Timeouts > Network Job Timeout. 6 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide AS/400 and iSeries LAN Printing Using the Printer Standard Network Port or MarkNet Internal Print Server How to find Job Buffering on the control panel: Job Buffering is only visible as a menu setting if there is a hard disk installed in the printer. Press MENU or touch Menus and then select Network/Ports > Standard Network > Job Buffering. · Port 9600 - This port should only be used for receiving IPDS jobs. The printer's Network Job Timeout setting is automatically set to the correct setting for receiving IPDS jobs on this port. This port is only provided for compatibility with some older printers. Port 5001 is the recommended port for printing IPDS jobs. Step 2 Note: Create a PSFCFG Examples showing parameters displayed on an AS/400 may be different than the parameters displayed on your system. Examples are shown with V5R2 parameters. Define a PSF configuration object for your printer using CRTPSFCFG. The PSFCFG object defined in this step is referenced in the printer device description (CRTDEVPRT). More than one printer can use this object. Below is an example of a PSF configuration. The parameters in bold are the parameters which must be changed for printing IPDS jobs.

Step 4 Configure the Printer's Print Server TCP/IP Settings To enable IPDS printing with a Standard Network port or a MarkNet internal LAN print server, several settings must be verified. You can verify these settings from the printer control panel as shown below. 1 2 3 4 5 From a Ready state press the MENU button (printers) or touch Use the navigation buttons or icons Select Network/Ports. TIp: To do this on printers, press the Select button Now you will see a list of menus. Select the TCP/IP menu. to scroll to Network/Ports. (Menus on MFPs). ; on MFPs just touch Network/Ports. Use the navigation buttons or icons to scroll through the options. Check each of the following settings and change them as needed to configure TCP/IP communication. 10 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide AS/400 and iSeries LAN Printing Using the Printer Standard Network Port or MarkNet Internal Print Server TCP/IP Settings Parameter Value Activate On (Printers: Must be "On" to enable TCP/IP communications. MFPs: not displayed.) Address 157.184.67.102 (Address available from your network administrator) Netmask 255.255.255.0 (Appropriate netmask for your network) Gateway 157.184.67.1 (IP address of your IP gateway) Enable DHCP On or Off (On, if you use a DHCP server.) (Off, if you set the IP address another way.) Enable RARP On or Off (On, if you use a RARP server.) (Off, if you set the IP address another way.) Enable BOOTP On or Off (On, if you use a BOOTP server.) (Off, if you set the IP address another way.) AutoIP On or Off (Default is On. This is the recommended setting.) WINS Server Address 157.184.100.20 (Address of your WINS Server) DNS Server Address 157.184.115.7 (Address of your DNS Server) 6 7 Save/submit any changes and return to the Ready screen. To verify the new print server settings, print a Network Setup Page. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Reports > Network Setup Page. This can be Network Setup Page, Network 1 Setup Page, or Network 2 Setup Page. Note that the Network Job Timeout is identified as End-of-job Timeout on this report. Step 5 Note: Configure the Printer's Network Job Timeout If you specified Port 5001 or 9600 in the AS/400 device description, you do not need to configure the printer's Network Job Timeout. Go directly to Step 6 [page 12]. Important! If you specified Port 9100 in the AS/400 device description, the printer's Network Job Timeout must be manually disabled by setting it to "0" (or to "Disable"). This is necessary to allow the host's Release Timer value or the printer's IPDS Timeout value to control when print jobs from another protocol, interface, 11 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide AS/400 and iSeries LAN Printing Using the Printer Standard Network Port or MarkNet Internal Print Server server, or host can be started. It also prevents the printer from ending the IPDS session if communication is delayed between the host and printer. Additional information on the printer IPDS Timeout value may be found in the IPDS Emulation User's Guide. Follow these steps to disable the printer's Network Job Timeout from the control panel: 1 Navigate to Network Job Timeout. To find the Network Job Timeout Option on the control panel: On printers, press MENU and then select Settings > Setup Menu > Timeouts > Network Job Timeout. On MFPs, touch Menus and then select Settings > General Settings > Timeouts > Network Job Timeout. 2 3 4 Select 0. This disables the network job timeout. Save/Submit any changes and return to the Ready screen. To verify the new print server settings, print a Network Setup Page. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Reports > Network Setup Page. This can be Network Setup Page, Network 1 Setup Page, or Network 2 Setup Page. Note that the Network Job Timeout is identified as End-of-job Timeout on this report. Step 6 Select the IPDS Emulation, Bar Code Size, Host Resolution, and Fax Interrupt Settings It is important to select the correct emulation in the printer IPDS MENU before sending IPDS jobs. Guidelines for Choosing the IPDS Emulation Setting The IPDS Emulation, the BAR CODE and Host Resolution options are found in the printer control panel under MENU/Menus > Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION. 1 2 "Resident" is the default setting. If you are replacing a printer that used a Native Emulation setting, "Resident" is the recommended emulation. If you are replacing a printer that used a 4028 Emulation setting, choose the "Resident" Emulation and change the following settings: a) Set Bar Code Size to "4028" under BARCODE > Bar Code Size. b) The recommended Host Resolution setting is "Auto". If you experience printing problems, set Host Resolution to "300". 3 If you are replacing a printer that used a 43xx Emulation setting, choose the "Resident" Emulation and change the following settings: a) Set Bar Code Size to "43xx" under BAR CODE > Bar Code Size. b) The recommended Host Resolution setting is "Auto". If you experience printing problems, set Host Resolution to "300". 4 If you are replacing a printer that used a 3812/3816 Emulation, select the "3812/3816" Emulation. This emulation only accepts 240 dpi resources (fonts, overlays, etc.) from the host and does not support DBCS printing. On MFPs, you can set the print priority of received faxes. Refer to the IPDS Emulation User's Guide for additional information about Fax Interrupt. This option is found under MENU/Menus > Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION. Refer to the IPDS Emulation User's Guide for information on these options and other IPDS MENU settings to format IPDS jobs. 12 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide AS/400 and iSeries LAN Printing Using the Printer Standard Network Port or MarkNet Internal Print Server Note 1: If the IPDS code release on an MFP is 3.00-01090 or higher, "Copy Interrupt" is supported: an IPDS job can be interrupted by copy jobs and will resume printing automatically. At lower release levels, intervening copy jobs will be spooled to disk (when available) and be processed after the IPDS job is finished. Note 2: The supported printers and MFPs do not contain an Advanced Function Common Control Unit (AFCCU). Step 7 Verify IPDS Printing If you have completed the steps above to configure the host and printer, you are ready to print your first IPDS job. It is assumed that TCP/IP communications is installed and started on the host. 1 2 3 4 5 6 Vary ON the device. VRYCFG CFGOBJ(IPDSPRT) CFGTYPE(*DEV) STATUS(*ON) Start the writer. STRPRTWTR IPDSPRT Send an IPDS job from your host system. Observe the printer control panel. When the first job data is received, BUSY should be displayed in the printer control panel. If the job does not print, go to Step 8 Troubleshooting. After the last page of the IPDS job prints, BUSY will remain displayed until the host or printer ends the session. This is controlled by the Release Timer on the host or by the IPDS Timeout on the printer. You may want to refer to the IPDS Emulation User's Guide to determine if other IPDS MENU settings need to be changed. Step 8 1 2 3 Troubleshooting If the IPDS job does not print, try the following. If BUSY is not displayed in the printer control panel or if the printer remains in Ready mode, check to be sure the printer is connected to the network. Try to PING the printer. If BUSY is not displayed in the printer control panel or if the printer remains in Ready mode, check all host and printer settings to be sure they are correct. If you receive an IPDS Negative Acknowledgement (NACK) beginning with '08C1' indicating that the job is printing outside the printer valid printable area, choose one of the following solutions: a) Change the Printable Area setting to Physical Page. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Printable Area. b) Change your application to position the text within the printable area. Refer to Printable Area in the IPDS Emulation User's Guide for more information. c) Change the Exception Ctrl setting to Sup Beyond VPA. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Exception Ctrl. The printer will not send a NACK to the host when printing outside the valid printable area. 4 If you receive an IPDS Negative Acknowledgement (NACK) beginning with '0821' indicating there are undefined characters in the job, choose one of the following solutions: a) Change your application to send only valid characters and control codes. 13 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide AS/400 and iSeries LAN Printing Using the Printer Standard Network Port or MarkNet Internal Print Server b) Change the Exception Ctrl setting to Sup Undef Char. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Exception Ctrl. The printer will not send undefined character NACKs to the host. 5 If the job prints, but some characters are printed incorrectly, you should check the default code page setting. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Default Codepage. On printers, the next step is to select Codepages A-E or Codepages F-K or Codepages L-Z, then select the proper code page from these groups. On MFPs, the complete list of code pages appear beside Default Codepage. If the job prints, but some bar codes print in the wrong size, refer to the Bar Code Size option in the IPDS User's Guide for more information. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > BARCODE > Bar Code Size. Refer to Chapter 10. Printer Messages and Problems on page 54 for additional problem solutions. Once the job prints, refer to the IPDS Emulation User's Guide for information on changing other IPDS MENU settings. 6 7 8 14 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide AS/400 and iSeries Twinax Printing Using the Adapter for SCS 2. AS/400 and iSeries Twinax Printing Using the Adapter for SCS · PSF/400 V3R1-R3, V3R6-R7, V4R1-R5, V5R1-R4, or greater With the optional Card for IPDS/SCS/TNe and the optional Coax/Twinax Adapter for SCS installed, the printer can receive, process, and print AFP/IPDS print jobs over TCP/IP from the following IBM software: Some printers do not support the Coax/Twinax Adapter for SCS. Refer to "Coax/Twinax Adapter for SCS Support" [page 53] to determine if your printer supports the adapter. Note that no MFPs support Twinax printing. The information below will lead you through the steps for setting up the AS/400, or iSeries, and the printer to print IPDS jobs over a direct Twinax connection using the optional Coax/Twinax Adapter for SCS. Refer to the IPDS User's Guide for detailed instructions on using the control panel to select and change option settings. Steps The following steps must be completed to begin printing IPDS jobs. 1 2 3 4 5 6 Configure the Adapter IPDS and SCS Twinax Addresses Set the Adapter for SCS Twinax Timeout Select the IPDS Emulation, Bar Code Size, Host Resolution, and Fax Interrupt Settings Modify the Auto-created Twinax Device Description or Use CRTDEVPRT to Create a Printer Device Description Verify IPDS Printing Troubleshooting Step 1 Configure the Adapter IPDS and SCS Twinax Addresses When the printer has both the "Card for IPDS and SCS/TNe" and the "Coax/Twinax Adapter for SCS" installed, it is possible to print IPDS jobs using the IPDS emulation in the Card for IPDS and SCS/TNe and SCS jobs using the SCS emulation of the Adapter for SCS. To use both emulations, when you install and configure the option cards, assign a twinax address for the IPDS device address and a different twinax address for the SCS device address in the Adapter for SCS. This is done using the SCS DEV.ADDR. and IPDS DEV. ADDR. options as shown below. In our examples, we will give address 0 to SCS and address 2 to IPDS. Important: If the IPDS device address and the adapter SCS device address are the same, the Adapter SCS device address will be used and the IPDS device address will be ignored. The word DUPLICATE will display in the control panel. Be certain to set the correct twinax addresses in the Adapter for SCS for both the SCS device address and the IPDS device address before physically connecting your printer to the twinax wiring system. If you were to incorrectly enter the same address used by another device, you would disable that device. If you do not know your printer's correct address, contact your network administrator. Step 1A: Configure the Printer Adapter IPDS Device Address - or Disable IPDS Printing The following options for the Adapter for SCS only appear when the IPDS emulation is detected in the printer. The IPDS Device Address is used to select the twinax address for the IPDS emulation or to disable the IPDS emulation. 15 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide AS/400 and iSeries Twinax Printing Using the Adapter for SCS 1 2 3 4 5 From a Ready state, on printers press the MENU button. Use the navigation buttons or icons On printers, press the Select button . to scroll to Option Card Menu. Navigate to SCS MENU 1 (or SCS MENU 2) > IPDS Options > IPDS Dev. Addr. Use the navigation buttons or icons to scroll through the values, which include 0-6 and "Disable". Select the desired value. Note: If you see the string SCS displayed after one of the numbers, for example "5 SCS", this means that the number - in this example number 5 - has already been set as the SCS Dev. Addr. number. 6 Save/Submit the value and exit to the Ready page. Step 1B: If you are using the IPDS emulation, set IPDS Buffer Size IPDS Buffer Size is used to select the size of the data/command buffer used by the Adapter for SCS when receiving data/commands from the twinax host. IPDS Buf. Size appears as an option in the printer panel only if the IPDS Dev. Addr. is enabled (address = 0 - 6). 1 Use the control panel MENU as described above to select Option Card Menu > SCS MENU 1 (or SCS MENU 2) > IPDS Options > IPDS Buf. Size. Select 256 or 1024. 256 is the recommended value. The 1024 byte buffer has the fastest transfer rate, but it is not compatible with some older IBM equipment. Note: 2 Save the value and exit to the Ready page. Step 1C: Configure the Printer Adapter SCS Device Address - or Disable SCS Printing The SCS Device Address is used to select the twinax device address for the adapter SCS emulation or to disable the adapter SCS emulation. 1 2 Use the control panel MENU as described above to select Option Card Menu > SCS MENU 1 (or SCS MENU 2) > SCS Options > SCS Dev. Addr. Use the navigation buttons to scroll through the values, which include 0-6 and "Disable". Select the desired value. Note: If the IPDS emulation and the adapter SCS emulation are given the same address, the SCS emulation in the Adapter for SCS is used and the IPDS emulation is ignored. The word DUPLICATE will display in the control panel. 3 Save the value and exit to the Ready page. Step 2 Set the Adapter for SCS Twinax Timeout The Twinax Timeout value specifies the amount of time the printer Adapter for SCS will wait before closing the connection to the host and allowing non-IPDS jobs to print. The default is 10 (= 30 seconds). Values equal to or less than 10 give a 30 second timeout; values equal to or more than 11 give a timeout in seconds as specified in the value used. To change the Twinax Timeout value: 1 Use the control panel MENU as described in Step 1A (page 15) to select Option Card Menu > SCS MENU 1 (or SCS MENU 2) > SCS OPTIONS > Twinax Timeout. 16 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide AS/400 and iSeries Twinax Printing Using the Adapter for SCS 2 3 Use the navigation buttons to scroll the display to the desired value - or use the numeric buttons to enter a value. Save the value and return to the Ready screen. The Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > IPDS Timeout value is not active when the printer is connected to a host through an Adapter for SCS card. The IPDS timeout is controlled by the Twinax Timeout value on the Adapter for SCS card. Note: Additional Information Please refer to the Adapter for SCS, Coax/Twinax Connection, Installation and User's Guide which came with the adapter for a detailed description of other menu settings which affect job formatting. Step 3 Select the IPDS Emulation, Bar Code Size, Host Resolution, and Fax Interrupt Settings It is important to select the correct emulation in the printer IPDS MENU before sending IPDS jobs. Guidelines for Choosing the IPDS Emulation Setting The IPDS Emulation, the BAR CODE and Host Resolution options are found in the printer control panel under MENU > Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION. 1 2 "Resident" is the default setting. If you are replacing a printer that used a Native Emulation setting, "Resident" is the recommended emulation. If you are replacing a printer that used a 4028 Emulation setting, choose the "Resident" Emulation and change the following settings: a) Set Bar Code Size to "4028" under BARCODE > Bar Code Size. b) The recommended Host Resolution setting is "Auto".

Observe the printer control panel. When the first job data is received, BUSY should be displayed in the printer control panel. If the job does not print, go to Step 6 Troubleshooting. After the last page of the IPDS job prints, BUSY will remain displayed until the host or printer ends the session. This is controlled by the Release Timer on the host or by the Twinax Timeout on the Adapter for SCS. You may want to refer to the IPDS Emulation User's Guide to determine if other IPDS MENU settings need to be changed. 4 Step 6 1 2 3 Troubleshooting If the IPDS job does not print, try the following. If BUSY is not displayed in the printer control panel or if the printer remains in Ready mode, check to be sure the printer is connected to the network. If BUSY is not displayed in the printer control panel or if the printer remains in Ready mode, check all host and printer settings to be sure they are correct. If you receive an IPDS Negative Acknowledgement (NACK) beginning with '08C1' indicating that the job is printing outside the printer valid printable area, choose one of the following solutions: a) Change the Printable Area setting to Physical Page. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Printable Area. b) Change your application to position the text within the printable area. Refer to Printable Area in the IPDS Emulation User's Guide for more information. c) Change the Exception Ctrl setting to Sup Beyond VPA. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Exception Ctrl. The printer will not send a NACK to the host when printing outside the valid printable area. 4 If you receive an IPDS Negative Acknowledgement (NACK) beginning with '0821' indicating there are undefined characters in the job, choose one of the following solutions: a) Change your application to send only valid characters and control codes. b) Change the Exception Ctrl setting to Sup Undef Char. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Exception Ctrl. The printer will not send undefined character NACKs to the host. 20 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide AS/400 and iSeries Twinax Printing Using the Adapter for SCS 5 If the job prints, but some characters are printed incorrectly, you should check the default code page setting. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Default Codepage. On printers, the next step is to select Codepages A-E or Codepages F-K or Codepages L-Z, then select the proper code page from these groups.

The printer port will be used in one of the following steps. Port descriptions: · Port 5001 - This is the recommended port selection for receiving IPDS jobs. This port should only be used for receiving IPDS jobs. The printer's Network Job Timeout and Job Buffering settings are automatically set to the correct settings for receiving IPDS jobs on this port. This port is recommended when a significant performance impact is seen when downloading IPDS resources for each job. With the proper configuration settings on the host and printer, the IPDS resources can be saved in the printer memory while the printer is printing non-IPDS jobs. Port 9100 - This port can receive PCL, Postscript, or IPDS jobs. In order to print IPDS jobs, the printer's Network Job Timeout must be manually set to "0" (or to "Disable") and Job Buffering must be manually set to "OFF". These settings also affect printing of non-IPDS jobs. · How to find the Network Job Timeout Option (which is also known as End-of-Job Timeout) on the control panel: On printers, press MENU and then select Settings > Setup Menu > Timeouts > Network Job Timeout. On MFPs, touch Menus and then select Settings > General Settings > Timeouts > Network Job Timeout. How to find Job Buffering on the control panel: Job Buffering is only visible as a menu setting if there is a hard disk installed in the printer. Press MENU or touch Menus and then select Network/Ports > Standard Network > Job Buffering. · Port 9600 - This port should only be used for receiving IPDS jobs. The printer's Network Job Timeout setting is automatically set to the correct setting for receiving IPDS jobs on this port. This port is only provided for compatibility with some older printers. Port 5001 is the recommended port for printing IPDS jobs. 23 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide PSF/MVS LAN Printing Using the Standard Network Port or Internal Print Server Step 2 Define the printer to JES a) Example for JES2 FSS(FSS1) PRT7 PROC=PSFPROC,HASPFSSM=HASPFSSM FSS=FSS1,MODE=FSS, PRMODE=(LINE,PAGE,SOSI1,SOSI2), CLASS=C,UCS=0,SEP,NOSEPDS,CKPTPAGE=100, DRAIN,MARK,TRKCELL=YES b) Example for JES3 FFSDEF,TYPE=WTR,FSSNAME=FSS3,PNAME=SAMPLE01, SYSTEM=SYS1,TERM=NO, DEVICE,DTYPE=PRTAFP1,NAME=PRT7, JUNIT=(,SYS1,,OFF),FSSNAME=FSS3, MODE=FSS,PM=(LINE,PAGE,SOSI1,SOSI2),CHARS=(YES,GT12), CARRIAGE=(YES,A868),CKPNTGP=100,HEADER=YES, WC=(C) Step 3 Add the printer to the PSF STARTUP PROC Add printer to PSFSTARTUP PROC.

To verify the new print server settings, print a Network Setup Page. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Reports > Network Setup Page. This can be Network Setup Page, Network 1 Setup Page, or Network 2 Setup Page. Note that the Network Job Timeout is identified as End-of-job Timeout on this report. Step 5 Note: Configure the Printer's Network Job Timeout If you specified Port 5001 or 9600 in the PSF STARTUP PROC, you do not need to configure the printer's Network Job Timeout. Go to directly to Step 6 [page 27]. Important! If you specified Port 9100 in the PSF STARTUP PROC, the printer's Network Job Timeout must be manually disabled by setting it to "0" (or to "Disable"). This is necessary to allow the host DISCINTV value or the printer's IPDS Timeout value to control when print jobs from another protocol, interface, server, or host can be started. It also prevents the printer from ending the IPDS session if communication is delayed between the host and printer. Additional information on the printer IPDS Timeout value may be found in the IPDS Emulation User's Guide. Follow these steps to disable the printer's Network Job Timeout from the control panel: 1 Navigate to Network Job Timeout. To find the Network Job Timeout Option on the control panel: On printers, press MENU and then select Settings > Setup Menu > Timeouts > Network Job Timeout. On MFPs, touch Menus and then select Settings > General Settings > Timeouts > Network Job Timeout. 2 3 4 Select 0. This disables the network job timeout. Save/Submit any changes and return to the Ready screen. To verify the new print server settings, print a Network Setup Page. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Reports > Network Setup Page. This can be Network Setup Page, Network 1 Setup Page, or Network 2 Setup Page. Note that the Network Job Timeout is identified as End-of-job Timeout on this report. Step 6 Select the IPDS Emulation, Bar Code Size, Host Resolution, and Fax Interrupt Settings It is important to select the correct emulation in the printer IPDS MENU before sending IPDS jobs. Guidelines for Choosing the IPDS Emulation Setting The IPDS Emulation, the BAR CODE and Host Resolution options are found in the printer control panel under MENU/Menus > Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION. 1 2 "Resident" is the default setting. If you are replacing a printer that used a Native Emulation setting, "Resident" is the recommended emulation. If you are replacing a printer that used a 4028 Emulation setting, choose the "Resident" Emulation and change the following settings: a) Set Bar Code Size to "4028" under BARCODE > Bar Code Size. b) The recommended Host Resolution setting is "Auto". If you experience printing problems, set Host Resolution to "300". 27 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide PSF/MVS LAN Printing Using the Standard Network Port or Internal Print Server 3 If you are replacing a printer that used a 43xx Emulation setting, choose the "Resident" Emulation and change the following settings: a) Set Bar Code Size to "43xx" under BAR CODE > Bar Code Size. b) The recommended Host Resolution setting is "Auto". If you experience printing problems, set Host Resolution to "300". 4 If you are replacing a printer that used a 3812/3816 Emulation, select the "3812/3816" Emulation. This emulation only accepts 240 dpi resources (fonts, overlays, etc.) from the host and does not support DBCS printing. On MFPs, you can set the print priority of received faxes. Refer to the IPDS Emulation User's Guide for additional information about Fax Interrupt. This option is found under MENU/Menus > Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION. Refer to the IPDS Emulation User's Guide for information on these options and other IPDS MENU settings to format IPDS jobs. Note 1: If the IPDS code release on an MFP is 3.00-01090 or higher, "Copy Interrupt" is supported: an IPDS job can be interrupted by copy jobs and will resume printing automatically. At lower release levels, intervening copy jobs will be spooled to disk (when available) and be processed after the IPDS job is finished. Note 2: The supported printers and MFPs do not contain an Advanced Function Common Control Unit (AFCCU). Step 7 Verify IPDS Printing If you have completed the steps above to configure the host and printer, you are ready to print your first IPDS job. 1 2 3 4 Send an IPDS job from your host system. Observe the printer control panel. When the first job data is received, BUSY should be displayed in the printer control panel. If the job does not print, go to Step 8 Troubleshooting. After the last page of the IPDS job prints, BUSY will remain displayed until the host or printer ends the session. This is controlled by the DISCINTV value on the host or by the IPDS Timeout on the printer. You may want to refer to the IPDS Emulation User's Guide to determine if other IPDS MENU settings need to be changed. Step 8 1 2 Troubleshooting If the IPDS job does not print, try the following. If BUSY is not displayed in the printer control panel or if the printer remains in Ready mode, check to be sure the printer is connected to the network. Try to PING the printer. If BUSY is not displayed in the printer control panel, or if the printer remains in Ready mode, check the status of the printer on the host. The status will be "inactive" if waiting for a print job. If the status is "drained", restart the printer. If BUSY is not displayed in the printer control panel or if the printer remains in Ready mode, check all host and printer settings to be sure they are correct. If you receive an IPDS Negative Acknowledgement (NACK) beginning with '08C1' indicating that the job is printing outside the printer valid printable area, choose one of the following solutions: 3 4 28 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide PSF/MVS LAN Printing Using the Standard Network Port or Internal Print Server a) Change the Printable Area setting to Physical Page. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Printable Area. b) Change your application to position the text within the printable area. Refer to Printable Area in the IPDS Emulation User's Guide for more information. c) Change the Exception Ctrl setting to Sup Beyond VPA. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Exception Ctrl. The printer will not send a NACK to the host when printing outside the valid printable area. d) In the PSF STARTUP PROC, set DATACK = BLKPOS. This will block any VPA or position checks. 5 If you receive an IPDS Negative Acknowledgement (NACK) beginning with '0821' indicating there are undefined characters in the job, choose one of the following solutions: a) Change your application to send only valid characters and control codes. b) Change the Exception Ctrl setting to Sup Undef Char. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Exception Ctrl. The printer will not send undefined character NACKs to the host. c) In the PSF STARTUP PROC, set DATACK = BLKCHAR. This will block any invalid character errors. 6 If the job prints, but some characters are printed incorrectly, you should check the default code page setting. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Default Codepage. On printers, the next step is to select Codepages A-E or Codepages F-K or Codepages L-Z, then select the proper code page from these groups. On MFPs, the complete list of code pages appear beside Default Codepage. If the job prints, but some bar codes print in the wrong size, refer to the Bar Code Size option in the IPDS User's Guide for more information. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > BARCODE > Bar Code Size. Refer to Chapter 10.

Guidelines for Choosing the IPDS Emulation Setting The IPDS Emulation, the BAR CODE and Host Resolution options are found in the printer control panel under MENU > Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION. 1 2 "Resident" is the default setting. If you are replacing a printer that used a Native Emulation setting, "Resident" is the recommended emulation. If you are replacing a printer that used a 4028 Emulation setting, choose the "Resident" Emulation and change the following settings: a) Set Bar Code Size to "4028" under BARCODE > Bar Code Size. b) The recommended Host Resolution setting is "Auto". If you experience printing problems, set Host Resolution to "300". 3 If you are replacing a printer that used a 43xx Emulation setting, choose the "Resident" Emulation and change the following settings: a) Set Bar Code Size to "43xx" under BAR CODE > Bar Code Size. 31 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide MVS Coax Printing Using the Adapter for SCS b) The recommended Host Resolution setting is "Auto". If you experience printing problems, set Host Resolution to "300". 4 If you are replacing a printer that used a 3812/3816 Emulation, select the "3812/3816" Emulation. This emulation only accepts 240 dpi resources (fonts, overlays, etc.) from the host and does not support DBCS printing. Refer to the IPDS Emulation User's Guide for information on these options and other IPDS MENU settings to format IPDS jobs. Note: The supported printers do not contain an Advanced Function Common Control Unit (AFCCU).

Observe the printer control panel. When the first job data is received, BUSY should be displayed in the printer control panel. If the job does not print, go to Step 10 Troubleshooting. 33 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide MVS Coax Printing Using the Adapter for SCS 3 After the last page of the IPDS job prints, BUSY will remain displayed until the host or printer ends the session. This is controlled by the DISCINTV value on the host or by the Coax Timeout on the Adapter for SCS. You may want to refer to the IPDS Emulation User's Guide to determine if other IPDS MENU settings need to be changed. 4 Step 10 Troubleshooting If the IPDS job does not print, try the following. 1 2 If BUSY is not displayed in the printer control panel or if the printer remains in Ready mode, check to be sure the printer is connected to the network. If BUSY is not displayed in the printer control panel, or if the printer remains in Ready mode, check the status of the printer on the host. The status will be "inactive" if waiting for a print job. If the status is "drained", restart the printer. If BUSY is not displayed in the printer control panel or if the printer remains in Ready mode, check all host and printer settings to be sure they are correct. If you receive an IPDS Negative Acknowledgement (NACK) beginning with '08C1' indicating that the job is printing outside the printer valid printable area, choose one of the following solutions: a) Change the Printable Area setting to Physical Page. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Printable Area. b) Change your application to position the text within the printable area. Refer to Printable Area in the IPDS Emulation User's Guide for more information. c) Change the Exception Ctrl setting to Sup Beyond VPA. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Exception Ctrl. The printer will not send a NACK to the host when printing outside the valid printable area. d) In the PSF STARTUP PROC, set DATACK = BLKPOS. This will block any VPA or position checks. 5 If you receive an IPDS Negative Acknowledgement (NACK) beginning with '0821' indicating there are undefined characters in the job, choose one of the following solutions: a) Change your application to send only valid characters and control codes. b) Change the Exception Ctrl setting to Sup Undef Char. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Exception Ctrl. The printer will not send undefined character NACKs to the host. c) In the PSF STARTUP PROC, set DATACK = BLKCHAR. This will block any invalid character errors. 6 If the job prints, but some characters are printed incorrectly, you should check the default code page setting. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > Default Codepage. On printers, the next step is to select Codepages A-E or Codepages F-K or Codepages L-Z, then select the proper code page from these groups. On MFPs, the complete list of code pages appear beside Default Codepage. If the job prints, but some bar codes print in the wrong size, refer to the Bar Code Size option in the IPDS User's Guide for more information. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION > BARCODE > Bar Code Size. Refer to Chapter 10. Printer Messages and Problems on page 54 for additional problem solutions. Once the job prints, refer to the IPDS Emulation User's Guide for information on changing other IPDS MENU settings. 3 4 7 8 9 34 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide PSF/2 LAN Printing Using an Internal LAN Print Server 5. PSF/2 LAN Printing Using an Internal LAN Print Server With the optional Card for IPDS/SCS/TNe and an internal LAN print server installed, the printer can receive, process, and print AFP/IPDS print jobs over TCP/IP directly from PSF/2. The information below will lead you through the steps for setting up PSF/2 and the printer to print IPDS jobs over a LAN. The printer must be configured with a Standard Network port or a MarkNet internal LAN print server. Refer to the IPDS User's Guide for detailed instructions on using the control panel to select and change option settings. Refer to the PSF/2 documentation if you need a description of how to connect PSF/2 to a host to receive AFP and IPDS data. System requirements OS/2TM version 2.11 or newer DB/2 version 1.0 or newer PSF/2 version 2.0 or newer TCP/IP version 2.0 (CSD UN56401) or newer Steps The following steps must be completed to begin printing IPDS jobs. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Choose a Printer Port for Printing IPDS Jobs Create a Printer in PSF/2 Enable Printer Sharing With the Job Interval Shutdown Timer Configure the Printer's Print Server TCP/IP Settings Configure the Printer's Network Job Timeout Select the IPDS Emulation, Bar Code Size, Host Resolution, and Fax Interrupt Settings Verify IPDS Printing Troubleshooting Step 1 Choose a Printer Port for Printing IPDS Jobs Several printer ports are available for receiving IPDS jobs when using the printer Standard Network port or the MarkNet internal LAN print server. The printer port will be used in one of the following steps. Port descriptions: · Port 5001 - This is the recommended port selection for receiving IPDS jobs. This port should only be used for receiving IPDS jobs. The printer's Network Job Timeout and Job Buffering settings are automatically set to the correct settings for receiving IPDS jobs on this port. This port is recommended when a significant performance impact is seen when downloading IPDS resources for each job. With the proper configuration settings on the host and printer, the IPDS resources can be saved in the printer memory while the printer is printing non-IPDS jobs. Port 9100 - This port can receive PCL, Postscript, or IPDS jobs. In order to print IPDS jobs, the printer's Network Job Timeout must be manually set to "0" (or to "Disable") and Job Buffering must be manually set to "OFF". These settings also affect printing of non-IPDS jobs. 35 · IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide PSF/2 LAN Printing Using an Internal LAN Print Server How to find the Network Job Timeout Option (which is also known as End-of-Job Timeout) on the control panel: On printers, press MENU and then select Settings > Setup Menu > Timeouts > Network Job Timeout.

Valid values: integers 1 to 9999 1-9998 time in seconds to wait between jobs 9999 wait indefinitely for the next job to be received. Step 4 Configure the Printer's Print Server TCP/IP Settings To enable IPDS printing with a Standard Network port or a MarkNet internal LAN print server, several settings must be verified. You can verify these settings from the printer control panel as shown below. 1 2 3 4 5 From a Ready state press the MENU button (printers) or touch Use the navigation buttons or icons Select Network/Ports. TIp: To do this on printers, press the Select button Now you will see a list of menus. Select the TCP/IP menu. to scroll to Network/Ports. (Menus on MFPs). ; on MFPs just touch Network/Ports. Use the navigation buttons or icons to scroll through the options. Check each of the following settings and change them as needed to configure TCP/IP communication. TCP/IP Settings Parameter Value Activate On (Printers: Must be "On" to enable TCP/IP communications. MFPs: not displayed.) 39 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide PSF/2 LAN Printing Using an Internal LAN Print Server TCP/IP Settings Parameter Value Address 157.184.67.102 (Address available from your network administrator) Netmask 255.255.255.0 (Appropriate netmask for your network) Gateway 157.184.67.1 (IP address of your IP gateway) Enable DHCP On or Off (On, if you use a DHCP server.) (Off, if you set the IP address another way.) Enable RARP On or Off (On, if you use a RARP server.) (Off, if you set the IP address another way.) Enable BOOTP On or Off (On, if you use a BOOTP server.) (Off, if you set the IP address another way.) AutoIP On or Off (Default is On. This is the recommended setting.) WINS Server Address 157.184.100.20 (Address of your WINS Server) DNS Server Address 157.184.115.7 (Address of your DNS Server) 6 7 Save/submit any changes and return to the Ready screen. To verify the new print server settings, print a Network Setup Page. Using the control panel MENU/Menus, select Reports > Network Setup Page. This can be Network Setup Page, Network 1 Setup Page, or Network 2 Setup Page. Note that the Network Job Timeout is identified as End-of-job Timeout on this report. Step 5 Note: Configure the Printer's Network Job Timeout If you specified Port 5001 or 9600 as the TCP/IP port number in the printer created in Step 2 [page 36], you do not need to configure the printer's Network Job Timeout. Go directly to Step 6 [page 41] . Important! If you specified Port 9100 as the TCP/IP port number, the printer's Network Job Timeout must be manually disabled by setting it to "0" (or to "Disable"). This is necessary to allow the host's Release Timer value or the printer's IPDS Timeout value to control when print jobs from another protocol, interface, server, or host can be started. It also prevents the printer from ending the IPDS session if communication is delayed between the host and printer. Additional information on the printer IPDS Timeout value may be found in the IPDS Emulation User's Guide. Follow these steps to disable the printer's Network Job Timeout from the control panel: 40 IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide PSF/2 LAN Printing Using an Internal LAN Print Server 1 Navigate to Network Job Timeout.
