Installation and Setup i5/OS® (System i) Setup You must set several parameters for resident outline font support. If you do not set these parameters properly, jobs submitted from i5/OS® (System i) expecting resident outline fonts may fail or print blank pages. If your host is a System i running i5/OS® and you require resident outline font support, the recommended setup is: • On the i5/OS® host, set the Resident Font parameter in the PSF Configuration object to *YES. • In the IPS Manager, ensure Enhanced Font Support is set to Enabled. • In the IPS Manager, load the AFP fonts using the Manage Fonts Dialog.

IPDS User Guide
Installation and Setup
i5/OS® (System i) Setup
You must set several parameters for resident outline font support.
If you do not set these parameters properly, jobs submitted from
i5/OS® (System i) expecting resident outline fonts may fail or print
blank pages. If your host is a System i running i5/OS® and you
require resident outline font support, the recommended setup is:
On the i5/OS® host, set the Resident Font parameter in the
PSF Configuration object to
*YES
.
In the IPS Manager, ensure Enhanced Font Support is set to
Enabled
.
In the IPS Manager, load the AFP fonts using the Manage
Fonts Dialog.
Defining a Logical Printer
Before using Xerox FreeFlow® Print Server IPDS to process IPDS
data streams, the host must have a printer defined for Xerox
FreeFlow® Print Server IPDS with the following requirements:
For TCP/IP connectivity, the Internet Protocol (IP) address and
port number of the printer must match the IP address and port
number of the printer.
Valid values are 5001 through 65535.
For channel connectivity, the unit address specified for the
host printer definition must be a unique value and must match
the unit address specified on the IPS Manager.
For z/OS® (MVS), the printer must be defined as an AFP-type
device.
TCP/IP and channel connectivity can be established in the IPS
Manager System pull-down menu, System Configuration dialog
box.
Verifying the Installation
The following steps should be completed for a successful
installation of the Xerox FreeFlow® Print Server IPDS software,
and proper queue and printer setup:
Install the IPS Manager software.
The Xerox Service
Representative performs this task.
Ensure that the IPDS Interpreter license file has been loaded,
and that IPDS is active and enabled in the print server Feature
Manager.
Ensure a streaming print queue is defined on the print server
for your system. You can view this queue by using the print
