AXIS 570/670e Features and Benefits
Reliability The AXIS 570/670e print server provides high performance and
reliability combined with low power consumption. The electronic
circuits are based on the proven AXIS ETRAX chip, which comprises
an integrated 32 bit RISC processor and associated network
controllers.
Flexibility In the IBM Mainframe and AS/400 environment, the AXIS 570/670e
can emulate IBM twinax and coax print and control functionality.
This means that the AXIS 570/670e can effectively replace
coax/twinax attached printers and control units on the LAN.
A single IBM data stream can be directed to any of the two high-speed
parallel printer ports, or the serial printer port, using TCP/IP or SNA
transport protocols.
AXIS 570/670e supports printing in all the major computer systems
and environments, including five different print methods in the
TCP/IP environment. It also allows you to print on up to three
printers simultaneously.
Speed The AXIS ETRAX chip has been specifically designed for LAN
products and benefits users with a faster throughput than a direct PC-
to-printer connection. With a sustained data throughput of up to 400
kbytes per second, the AXIS 570/670e is fast. High speed Centronics
communication such as, Hewlett-Packard Fast Mode, High Speed and
IBM Fast Byte is supported.
Easy to Install You can install the AXIS 570/670e in minutes, using any standard
web browser.
Security You can assign passwords to restrict both login and printer access.
