SIMM for IPDS The Optra W SIMM for IPDS makes it easy and affordable to print Advanced Function Printing (AFP) or Intelligent Printer Data Stream (IPDS) documents in a network environment. Install the SIMM for IPDS in the printer's optional firmware single inline memory module (SIMM) connector. With this SIMM and a MarkNet print server or the Adapter for SCS, the printer becomes an IBM host workstation printer capable of printing AFP/IPDS documents from an AS/400 or System/390 computer. Features • Provides AFP/IPDS data stream support in IBM mainframe and AS/400 environments where AFP/IPDS documents need to be printed over TCP/IP to LAN printers or over distributed SNA networks using a coaxial or twinaxial cable connected printer. • Supports emulation of common IBM IPDS printers. • Supports 16 different scalable bar code types. • With SmartSwitch support, lets the printer automatically switch to the correct printer language emulation. • Permits changing the IPDS printer setting remotely by sending a special text file to the printer on any connection. • Supports preprinted media settings for simplex or duplex control for each paper tray. • Supports scalable OCR-A and OCR-B fonts. • Lets you view the IPDS code version from the operator panel. • Supports offsetting, hole punching, and stapling when an optional finisher is attached to the printer. With the appropriate host software and this option, the printer emulates an IBM 381x, 43xx, 311x, or 4028 printer. The SIMM for IPDS supports scalable fonts and 300, 600, and 1200 Image Quality print resolutions.

SIMM for IPDS
The Optra W SIMM for IPDS makes it easy and affordable to print Advanced Function
Printing (AFP) or Intelligent Printer Data Stream (IPDS) documents in a network environ-
ment.
Install the SIMM for IPDS in the printer’s optional firmware single inline memory module
(SIMM) connector. With this SIMM and a MarkNet print server or the Adapter for SCS, the
printer becomes an IBM host workstation printer capable of printing AFP/IPDS docu-
ments from an AS/400 or System/390 computer.
Features
Provides AFP/IPDS data stream support in IBM mainframe and AS/400 environ-
ments where AFP/IPDS documents need to be printed over TCP/IP to LAN print-
ers or over distributed SNA networks using a coaxial or twinaxial cable connected
printer.
Supports emulation of common IBM IPDS printers.
Supports 16 different scalable bar code types.
With SmartSwitch support, lets the printer automatically switch to the correct
printer language emulation.
Permits changing the IPDS printer setting remotely by sending a special text file to
the printer on any connection.
Supports preprinted media settings for simplex or duplex control for each paper
tray.
Supports scalable OCR-A and OCR-B fonts.
Lets you view the IPDS code version from the operator panel.
Supports offsetting, hole punching, and stapling when an optional finisher is
attached to the printer.
With the appropriate host software and this option, the printer emulates an IBM 381x,
43xx, 311x, or 4028 printer.
The SIMM for IPDS supports scalable fonts and 300, 600, and 1200 Image Quality print
resolutions. Select the resolution through the IPDS Menu that becomes available when
