IPDS for Use with a NIC and Twinax Host Interface
This option supports the IPDS language to allow a LAN connection as well as
a direct connection of the printer to an IBM host computer that uses the twinax
data interface. The printer may be ordered with this option installed and the
required hardware to support it, or it can be field installed by an authorized
service representative. The printer must have a NIC, Coax/Twinax interface,
300 DPI printhead, and 16 MB DRAM installed to support this field installed
option.
General Purpose Input/Ouput (GPIO)
GPIO is both hardware and software. The hardware is the actual IO board to
be mounted in the printer
, and the software is the GPIO Manager which is part
of the Printronix Remote Management Software Advanced Tool Kit. The
GPIO hardware is a printed circuit board containing optically isolated inputs
and outputs as well as relays. The GPIO software is both a printer resident
GPIO event parser and a PC-based GPIO manager that allows the user to
define how the general purpose IO hardware should behave for the given
application.
Supplies And Accessories
The best printing solution is achieved when the printer, ribbon, and media are
matched to the application requirements. The use of Genuine Printronix
Thermal Media and Ribbons will ensure optimum image quality, consistent
bar code performance, and extended life of the printhead.
Please refer to the Printronix Media Selection Guide for details concerning the
