1 Introduction The IPDS DIMM provides more features th at any other competitive product in t he world. The IPDS DIM M is an internal module for AFP print using the IP DS printing capabilities.
2 Inst allation The installation of t he IPDS DIMM is described in detail below. Requirements: Minimum 8M B RAM installed in the print er. Note: Before you start installing the IPDS DIMM, make sure that the printer is powered off and that the powe r cord has been disconnected.
3 Configuration 3.1 Using the Web Browser Through a web browser it is possible to configure the IPDS DIMM and to perform various advanced test functions. 3.1.1 Requirements A web browser, for example Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 or Netscape Navigator 4.
3.1.3 IPDS Configuration 1. Go to IPDS CONFIGURATION SETTI NGS to configure the IPDS DIMM. The settings are shown in Figure 1 . 2. Customize the settings with your preferred values. If you cli ck , you will see a list of the diff erent settings, th e range of the values and t he default values.
EMULATION Defines the type of IPDS printer to emulate. Range: 3812 3816 4028 Default: 4028 DEFAULT CODEPAGE Defines which codepage to use as printer default. Range: 1..65534 (0xFFFE). Validated when the ppd line opens. Default: 500 REPORT MARGINS TO SYSTEM Defines whether the margins should be repo rted i n the OPC reply or not.
Range: NO YES Default: NO TRUE PAGE COUNTER Defines whether to quer y for printed pages. Range: NO YES Default: NO IM SMOOTHING Defines whether the 240 to 300 dpi scaling in IM 3812 mode should be smoothed in the same way as characters or not at all. Range: NO YES Default: YES 3.
Note: The defau lt value is actually '0 ', indicating that the AFP ID will be automatically assigned. By def ault Tray 1 (the fold dow n tray) will actually be assigned the highest (normal tray) AFP ID 3.2 Hints and Guidelines for Configuration This section describes where settings are st ored.
4 PSF/400 AFP Printing Using TCP/IP This chapter provides configuration guidelines for OS/400 using TCP/IP. The versions differ somewhat in the setup. For the different OS/400 versions, use the cross-references below: 4.1, AS/400 Settings for Version 3.
Printer Requirements: The recommended memory configu ration is as follows: Requirement Minimum installed memory Recommended minimum memory (simple text) Recommended minimum memory (pages with overlays.

Appendix A. Abbreviations Abbreviation Full name Explanation AFP Advanced Function Presentation IBM concept for print data formatting that defines how print control files should be structured.
Abbreviation Full name Explanation ICDS Compressed Data Stream MPI Tech equivalent for the IPDS data stream. ICDS will for inst ance be generated and sent by PSS and translated to PCL or PostScript by the MPI Tech PrintServer/Protocol converter.
Abbreviation Full name Explanation LPD Line Printer Demon Part of the standard TCP/IP stack (programs). Two major (incompatible) variations of LPR/LPD are generally usedWorks only in conjunction with LPR. The sender of a print job via TCP/IP will be L PR and the receiver will be LPD.
Abbreviation Full name Explanation PPR Page Printer Requester Enhanced version of LPR/LPD. The enhancement enables bi- directional communication when printing. Not part of the standard TCP/IP stack (programs). Used by ida PSS, ida HPR and PSF. Works only in conjunction with PPR.
