ETHERNET TO TWINAX/COAX PRINT SERVER

7. The print server will now automatically create the following devices on your

AS/400:

• A 5494 Controller with the first five characters of the “Interface Control

Point” name followed by the identifier RMT.

• A printer device for every printer that was attached to the print server at

the time the new configuration was sent to the print server or when the

print server was last reset. Names for the printer devices are actually given

by the AS/400 system and follow this format:

ABCDPRTXX

where

ABCD are the first four characters of the “Interface Control

Point”;

PRT is a fixed identifier for printers;

XX identifies the printer(s) that was(were) actually attached

to the print server at the time the SNA (APPC)

configuration was applied to the print server or at the

time the print server was last reset.

NOTE

If the twinax attached printer is an IPDS printer, you will need to change

one parameter on the AS/400. Using the WRKDEVD command, enter the

name of the printer device just created. Then change “Advanced

Function Printing” value to *YES.
