Example
IPDS resources have been downloaded during a session with a host connected through the Adapter for SCS card (Coax or Twinax attachment). These resources will be deleted by the IPDS emulation when an IPDS job is received from a LAN attached host. When another IPDS job is received through the Adapter for SCS card, the printer will return a Printer Reset exception to the host. The host will download the resources again with the next IPDS job.
On IPDS code level 8222 and below, the IPDS emulation cannot be shared by IPDS hosts connected to the printer using the Adapter for SCS (Coax or Twinax attachment) and IPDS hosts connected to the printer using a MarkNet internal print server, MarkNet Pro external print server, or MarkNet XLe. IPDS jobs will either be accepted through the LAN connection or the Coax/Twinax connection, but not both. If you try to share the IPDS emulation between the connections, the printer will stop and display the message Two IPDS Sources Recycle Power. The connection through which the IPDS emulation first receives data will be the only connection recognized by the SIMM for IPDS.
If you are installing a:
MarkNet internal printer server – Go to section 7.2 Configuring a MarkNet Internal Print Server on page 84.
MarkNet Pro external print server – Go to section 7.3 Configuring a
NMarkNet Pro External Print Server on page 87.
MarkNet XLe external print server – Go to section 7.4 Configuring a MarkNet XLe External Print Server on page 89.
7.2Configuring a MarkNet Internal Print Server
To enable IPDS printing with a MarkNet internal print server, several settings must be changed. You can make these changes from the printer operator panel. For more information on how to change these settings, refer to the Network Adapter User’s Guide or the Network Adapter Hardware Setup manual, which came with your adapter.
