v8230 Token-RingControlled Access Unit attached to an AS/400, PS/2, or RS/6000 processor
v8228 Token-RingMultistation Access Unit attached to a 3172, 3746, 3725, 3174, 3745, or 3720
attached to a 3090, ES/9000, or 308X processor.
v8230 Token-RingControlled Access Unit attached to a 3172, 3746, 3725, 3745, 3174, or 3720 attached
to a 3090, ES/9000, or 308X processor.
vThe printer may be located a maximum distance of 100 meters (328 feet) from the 8228 Multistation
Access Unit or from the 8230 Controlled Access Unit.
vThe distance between the 8228 Multistation Units can be increased with either the 8220 or 8219 Optical
Fiber Repeater.
Ethernet
The Infoprint 62 standard Ethernet 10BaseT attachment will attach to the following devices:
vTwisted pair cabling attached to an RS/6000, PS/2, orAS/400
vTwisted pair cabling attached to an IBM 3172 or 3745 attached to a 3090, ES/9000, or 308X processor.
vAn IBM 8250 or 8260 Twisted Pair Hub
The Infoprint 62 Ethernet 10Base2 attachment (FC #4162) will attach to the following devices:
vThin Ethernet Coaxial attached to a RS/6000, PS/2, or AS/400
vThin Ethernet Coaxial attached to an IBM 3172 or 3745 attached to a IBM 3090, ES/9000, or 308X
processor.
System/390 Parallel Channel:
System/390 parallel channel attachment is supported in the PSF for OS/390, PSF/MVS, PSF/VM, and
PSF/VSE printing environments.
For S/390 parallel channel attachment, a control unit position on a S/370 parallel block multiplexer channel
is required on an IBM 3090, ES/9000 processor, a S/390 Parallel Enterprise Server,or a Multiprise 2000
Server.
Attachment is also supported via the 9034 ESCON Converter Model 1 for the S/390 Parallel Channel.
ESCON Channel
The ESCON channel is supported in the PSF for OS/390, PSF/MVS, PSF/VM, and PSF/VSE printing
environments.
vThe IBM Infoprint 62 may be attached natively to IBM ESCON channel (3090-J, 9021, 9121, 9221,
9672, 2003).
vAttachment is also supported via the 9032/9033 ESCON Directors and 9036 ESCON Remote Channel
Model 1 and Model 2.
The ESCON attachment may be shared between multiple MVS systems. Toallow access by a different
host, the operator must drain the printer and vary it offline to one host before varying it online to the
second host.
A“Multi-Host Environment”ESCON configuration option is provided that when used with PSF for OS/390
or PSF/MVS ASSIGN/UNASSIGN support guarantees a printer on a shared attachment cannot be online
to multiple hosts concurrently.A second host trying to assign the printer will be denied access with a notice
that the printer is assigned elsewhere. Multi-Host Environment support increases configuration flexibility
and simplifies operational procedures for ESCON-attached printers.
The Multi-Host Environment is supported only by OS/390 V1R3.0 or higher operating with either of the
following:
