Printer Features

External Hard Disks

The printer's 50-pin SCSI 1-2 connector allows you to expand your printer's capabilities with the addition of up to six external 344 MB SCSI hard disks to store downloaded fonts and optional emulations. Refer to the System Administrator's Guide for more information.

Dual I/O Slots

The QMS 4525 Print System has dual I/O slots to support two dif- ferent network interfaces such as Token-Ring, Ethernet, and IBM 3270A and 5250 for Coax and Twinax.

Network Interfaces

In addition to the three standard interfaces—the QMS 4525 Print System has the option of using additional network inter- faces, such as DECnet, DECnet and TCP/IP (dual stack), Novell NetWare, and TCP/IP for Ethernet; Novell NetWare and TCP/IP for Token-Ring; and IBM 3270A and 5250 for Coax and Twinax. (See your QMS vendor for a list of avail- able protocols.)

Also, a kit is available which converts the standard Centronics parallel interface into a Dataproducts parallel interface.

User Benefit—Network interfaces provide flexibility and fast data transfer in complex network environments. Simulta- neous Interface Operation (SIO) allows all protocols to run concurrently. The printer is ideal for networks. It also meets the needs of dissimilar networks and host environments by connecting directly to varied interfaces, eliminating the need for print servers.

Output Options

The printer offers three types of output and finishing devices: A 20-bin sorter, a 40-bin sorter, and a stapler/stacker. Refer to the System Administrator's Guide for more information.
