The SPC gives the printer the operational ability to connect to any PC, or
network system supporting parallel or serial interfaces, and to three different
IBM host systems:
System 3x
AS/400
3270 Mainframes
The SPC will support the following third party models for Twinax: MODE 219,
MODE IBM, and MODE P5000.
The printer emulations supported by the SPC are Twinax 5225 and Coax
3287. The SPC also provides a range of interfaces available in your thermal
printer: Centronics, serial, coax, and twinax. Also supported are Epson,
Proprinter, P-Series, Serial Matrix, IGP/VGL, and IGP/PGL emulations.
The SPC has the ability to handle multiple print jobs concurrently through
coax/twinax and parallel and serial interfaces. This is accomplished th rough
the Auto Switching feature (see page 78). Because of hardware restrictions,
coax and twinax cannot be selected together.
