IBM 2785+01 manual Code Upgrade New POD Functions, Enterprise Print Drivers

Family 2785+01 IBM Infoprint 2085

●Minimum required = 0, maximum allowed = 1

●Prerequisite = none, Co-requisite = none

●Conflict = this feature is mutually exclusive with IBM Token-Ring 4/16 Adapter (FC 4120/4121)

This feature will disable the standard Ethernet attachment.

The Gigabit Ethernet TX attachment offers high-speed data transfers using standard ethernet Category 5 UTP copper cabling. This LAN technology allows gigabit speeds with existing Category 5 facility wiring.

This feature is also known as 1000BaseTX and supports speeds of 10/100/1000 megabits per second.

The connection to the server can be direct (point-to-point) or through standard Gigabit Ethernet TX LAN connections.

This attachment complies with the IEEE 802.3ab standard.

The Gigabit Ethernet TX attachment utilizes a RJ-45 connector to connect to standard Category 5 ethernet cabling. When used with standard Category 5 ethernet cabling, the maximum cable segment distance is 100 meters.

Below are the Attachment/Datastreams for the Gigabit Ethernet feature:

Physical	Protocols	Datastream
----------	---------------------------	--------------------
1000BaseTX	IP, IPX, NetBios, Ethertalk	PostScript 3, PCL 6,
		PDF, IPDS

The code upgrade is required for the Gigabit Ethernet feature.

Code Upgrade

New POD Functions

A code upgrade with the following new function is now available.

Enterprise Print Drivers

Print On Demand (POD) functionality is available for windows based drivers including Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows ME.

Job Ticket Composer

This job ticket composition utility can create, save, and edit job tickets and send jobs to the printer. The software runs in conjunction with drivers for Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Windows ME, and it can also be run as a stand-alone utility. The composer supports PCL 6, PostScript 3 and PDF jobs.

Job Ticket Editor

This editor supports XML-based job tickets created using a subset of Job Description Format (JDF) as specified by CIP4 (International Cooperation for the Integration of Processes in Prepress, Press and Postpress). It allows job tickets to be sent to the machine with a print job. The job ticket can specify many special processing requests, including:

●Stapling (including subset stapling)

●Punching

●Covers

●Inserted pages

●Special media on certain sheets
