AFP SUMMARY

Remote connection: BARR/RJE

Using the remote BARR/RJE connection, the printer is attached to a PC containing BARR software and hardware. The PC is connected to a Front End Processor (FEP) through telecommunication lines.

The FEP is then attached to the System/370 or System/390 mainframe.

For DocuPrint IPS printers, the BARR software supports remote connectivity, such as Remote Job Entry (RJE). The remote operator can communicate to the host, and the host operator can communicate with the remote device.

The BARR/RJE spooler can accept data from multiple sources and drive multiple printers simultaneously.

TCP/IP connection: Ethernet

For TCP/IP connectivity via an Ethernet, the mainframe is connected to either a 3172 or 3745 IBM control unit. The control unit is connected to a router, which in turn connects the various workstations and printers on the LAN.

Each device (mainframe, control unit, router, workstation, printer) must have an Ethernet card installed in the device.
