DOCUPRINT IPS SYSTEM

Connectivity solutions

This section/table provides the valid connectivity solutions for the stand-alone and dual mode configurations of the DocuPrint IPS printer series.

Note: Please note these connectivity limitations:

•

In IPS mode, only one connection is active at any given time.

In Dual Mode configuration, while in IPS mode, PostScript and PCL jobs may be spooled in the background.

In Dual Mode configuration, switching between modes requires a soft reboot.

•Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) connections are not supported on DocuPrint IPS systems.
