1 Introduction

1.1 Equipment Requirements and Specifications

Thank you for purchasing the SIMM (Single Inline Memory Module) for IPDS. This provides your printer with high quality IBM host connectivity print output. With the appropriate adapter and host software, your printer becomes an IBM host workstation printer capable of printing AFP or IPDS documents from an AS/400, System/370, System/390, or System/36.

To use the SIMM for IPDS, your Lexmark Optra printer must have a minimum of 4 MB of installed memory and one of the following:

∙a MarkNet S internal network adapter for connection to a Token-Ring or Ethernet LAN.

∙a Coax/Twinax Adapter for SCS internal adapter for connection to a host via coax or twinax cables.

∙a MarkNet Pro print server for external connection (using the parallel port) to a Token-Ring or Ethernet LAN.

∙a MarkNet XLe print server for external connection (using the parallel port) to a Token-Ring or Ethernet LAN.

Code Levels Required:
MarkNet Pro	2.9.15 (or greater)
MarkNet XLe	04.130.01 (or greater)
SCS Adapter	H01-7482 (or greater) for coax
	H02-7451 (or greater) for twinax

For help determining your code levels, see chapter 5 Using the SIMM for IPDS with a MarkNet Adapter or MarkNet Print Server or chapter 6 Using the SIMM for IPDS with the SCS Adapter.

If you need to update your adapter’s code level, contact the Lexmark Technical Support Center. MarkNet print server and SCS adapter firmware updates are also available from the Lexmark web site at http://www.lexmark.com.
