Section 1
General Information
Product Overview • This interface has full support for the IPDS features of the correspond-
ing IBM 3812, IBM 3816 and IBM 4028 printers and is 100% plug
compatible with these printer types.
• Emulation selection (3812/16 or 4028) is easily done from the front
panel control.
• Hardware installation is easily done by the user. The only tool needed
is a screwdriver for mounting one single screw. The interface consists
only of two parts: -The AFP IOP main board and the externally
attached Twinax or Coax patch cable. The interface only takes posses-
sion of the internal optional port of the printer and allows dynamic
sharing with the existing input ports of the printer.
• The interface connects to the IOP input port of the Lexmark printer
allowing maximum utilization of the performance of the high speed
RISC processor on the AFP IOP interface.
• Best performance is obtained by using the Lexmark Optra series, which
is built around a new Graphics Engine based on an object oriented
design. The AXIS AFP IOP creates an HP PCL5 raster image for each
page to ensure 100% compatibility with the AFP architecture, and the
new Graphics enterpreter of the Lexmark Plus series can maintain full
printspeed during processing of complex graphics jobs.

Section 1: General Information
IPDS The Intelligent Printer Data Stream (IPDS) is the host-to-printer data
stream for Advanced Function Printing (AFP) subsystems. It is part of
IBM's System Application Architecture (SAA).
The IPDS architecture is functionally divided into eight towers of
command sets, each representing a major printer capability. Five data
towers: Text, IM Image, IO Image, Graphics and Bar Code; and three
resource towers: Page Segment, Overlay and Loaded Font.
With IPDS it is possible to:
• use the all-points-addressable printing capability of the page printer to
print text, graphics, images or bar codes at any point on the page.
• use images and vector graphics to print line drawings, pie charts, bar
charts, graphics, logos, signatures etc.
• combine all kinds of data on the same page.
The Distinction
between AFP and
IPDS
Fonts The AFP IOP contains a total of 32 resident 300 dpi (dots per inch) fonts
• print in all rotations either on separate pages or on the same page.
• electronically store and later print forms and letterheads.
• electronically store and later print host fonts.
In general AFP is the entire SAA print concept, whereas the AFP Data
Stream (AFPDS) represents closed page definition files which have
information of various resources (e.g. the coordinates of a line and where
to place a logo). The resources, not already resident in the printer (e.g. the
logo), are picked up in the PSF libraries and incorporated in the IPDS
format representing the final formated output, which communicates
bidirectionally between the PSF and the printer. This interaction ensures
for instance that the logo is loaded into the printer only when needed (first
time and after an error situation), and deleted only when other resources
need the space.
(4028 emulation) and 35 resident 240 dpi fonts (3812 emulation). The
fonts are functionally equivalent to the standard IBM 4028 AS1/NS1 and
the IBM 3812 Model 2 fonts. Refer to Appendix B IPDS Font Summary
for a full listing of the resident fonts.
AXIS AFP IOP User’s Manual 9
Section 1: General Information
The Lexmark IOP
Port
AFP IOP Serial
I/O Port
The Lexmark IOP port allows a network interface to send data to the
Lexmark PCL and PostScript interpreter with an extensively higher speed
than possible through a parallel PC cable. Additionally the IOP port
provides information of various hardware and software states to the AFP
IOP interface. With a unique native IOP language defined by Lexmark it
is possible to program the front panel push buttons and display to allow
front panel controlled user setup of the interface connected to the IOP
port. The native Lexmark settings are altered by means of the PJL
language invented by Hewlett Packard. The IOP port on the 4039 10 and
12 page printers does not deliver the appropriate voltage to the interface
card unless a DC/DC converter is installed in the 5 pole socket above the
interface.
The serial I/O port on the AFP IOP allows easy software upgrade of the
interface through a menu/mouse controlled PC utility program. The same
utility program can be used for setting up the front panel configurable
options also. The only benefit of using the utility program for setting up
the options is that instead of changing them one by one, they can all be
overwritten by a complete configuration file in one download operation.
The serial I/O port can also be used as a trace output port for dumping
system data sent from the HOST onto a serial attached PC. Contact your
local dealer/distributor for more information.
10 AXIS AFP IOP User’s Manual
Section 2
Front Panel Operation
The AFP IOP adds a complete set of interface menus to the existing
Lexmark front panel menu structure, thus allowing all interface settings to
be altered by an easy self explanatory user interface. Menu settings relating
to Coax and Twinax change according to the cable connected to the AFP
IOP.
Note: Changed settings will only have effect at the next Power on.
Section 2: Front Panel Operation
The Optra front panel will not indicate the presence of the AFP IOP
when it is Online (Ready). When printing from the AFP IOP the
frontpanel will display "AXIS AFP"(Only on Optra and 4039 Plus
printers) and "NET" as the source, instead of parallel or serial.
Note: When the AFP IOP becomes ready after power on a "beep" is made from
the interface. This indicates that the communication processor is ready,
which is the last check in the power on sequence.
AFP IOP menus The AFP IOP menus are entered by the following keystrokes when
entering [MENUS]:
Optra and 4039

AXIS AFP IOP User’s Manual 11
Section 2: Front Panel Operation
Opening Screen (Main IOP Menu)
The first display under [Network Menu] is shown in figures 1 and 2.
Notice the following about the displays:
1. The detected cable type -Coax or Twinax is displayed in the upper left
corner. However if no cable is connected, the display will indicate
“Twinax”.
2. Synchronization with the Coax or Twinax Control Unit is displayed as
"CU". However the display does not operate in real time mode, but is
only updated when entering [Network Menu]. This means unsteady
lines or later disconnection will not be indicated, and the CU indica-
tion is not a guarantee for a proper connection.
3. The emulation indication in the lower left corner shows the power on
emulation. If the emulation is changed in the [IPDS Options] menu
the display will show the previous emulation until next power on.
4. The "D" next to the emulation indicates if a duplex unit has been
detected or if duplex has been enabled in the [Duplex Support] menu.
This detection only works on Optra and 4039 Plus models.
Note: The "D" indication will also be displayed in 4028 emulation, even though
an original IBM 4028 does not support duplex (The AFP IOP can print
IPDS duplex in all emulations).

Section 3
Utility Program Operation
The AFP utility program is a tool for reconfiguring and upgrading the
software in your AFP IOP interface which enables you to :
1. Upgrade main program and fonts in the interface. (Note that the
standard package does not contain the software files for the main program and font upgrade. Contact your local dealer for further information).
Section 3: Utility Program Operation
2. Change or create complete setups related to the host and to the
printer, and save/restore setup files on disk (user and application tailored configurations).
3. Change single settings related to the host and for the printer.
Note: All these settings can be changed from the Lexmark front panel or by
using the IPDS Parser function as well.
The program consists of two files:
IOPUTI.EXE (Main program)
IOPUTI.HLP (Help file used by the program)
The files can be copied onto the PC harddisk in a directory made for the
purpose, for instance C:\IOPUTI, or the program can be run directly
from the floppy disk. The only PC-requirement is a 9 pole serial output
and preferably a mouse.
The program is started from the DOS prompt and will present itself with
the opening screen. (The same window is displayed when selecting the
menu [Info])
Note: The online help screens can be accessed anytime during program
operation by pressing the <F1> key.
AXIS AFP IOP User’s Manual 15
Section 3: Utility Program Operation
Setup for PC Configuration
To configure or upgrade the AXIS AFP IOP using the AFP utility
program, the PC must be connected to the printer. Follow these steps:
Important 1. Switch off both the PC and the printer!
2. Connect the serial link cable which is supplied in the delivery. Attach
the connector marked PC to the PC, and the connector marked IOP
to the AXIS AFP IOP in the printer.
3. Switch on the printer and the PC.
Handling Config Files
To make changes to a config file you must either load a premade config
file from your PC or upload a configuration file from the AFP IOP
interface. Alternatively you can enter settings according to the IOP status
page taken from the frontpanel of the Lexmark printer. All configuration
files have the extension *.CFN.
Note: If no config file has been loaded prior to selecting this item, a default
config file setting is used.
Press <ALT> C, or use the mouse to select [Config file].
Open Config File (read from PC harddisk/floppy drive)
When the screen Open Config File appears press <TAB> and use the
arrow keys to move the cursor bar to the appropriate CFN file. Now press
<TAB> again and the [OPEN] field will highlight. Press <ENTER>. You
will now be in the main menu again. The config file is now read into the
memory.
16 AXIS AFP IOP User’s Manual
Making Changes to Config File Options
In the Main Menu, press <Alt> C to select menu [Config file] and move
down with the arrow keys to select between [Coax options], [Twinax
options], [Printer options], [Serial options] and [IPDS options].
As an example [Printer options] is selected. To change the number of
input trays press the arrow down key to [number of cassettes]. Press
<TAB> and the zero in [Option values] will highlight. Change value to
two, and press <TAB> again. The [Accept] field is now highlighted. Press
<ENTER> and the above screen is displayed, or press <TAB> if other
printer options must be changed. Follow the same procedure to change
other options.
Note: If this utility program option window is closed by pressing <ESC>, Cancel
or clicking on the upper left window close square, the changes made to the
config data will be lost.
Section 3: Utility Program Operation
It is possible to change only a single option on the AFP IOP and then
download the option directly from the option screen by pushing
[Download Option]. The word Downloading will flash a couple of times
in the lower right corner of the screen until the download is completed.
Important In order to download or upload, make sure the Lexmark printer has been
set into remote setup mode by pressing the two [OK] buttons in the
[Remote Setup] menu in the IOP front panel menu. Alternatively the
download sequence in the utility program can be activated before the
printer is powered ON. This way the interface will detect the data at its
serial port as the first step in the power ON routine, and only run in
upgrade mode. Note that the printer will display an error message after a
while as the interface only communicates with the serial port and not with
the IOP port. This does not affect the download.

Section 4
IPDS Parser Function
The IPDS Parser is a function for configuring the AFP IOP remotely from
a Sys370 (Coax) or AS/400 (Twinax) host environment. In this way you
do not need to use the front panel or the Utility Program to configure the
AFP IOP. The parser is valid in both 4028 and 3816 emulation mode, no
matter if it is connected by Coax or Twinax.
Using the IPDS Parser
Section 4: IPDS Parser Function
To configure the AFP IOP, you send the configuration data (according to
the syntax instructions below) as text to the AFP IOP. The following rules
apply for configuration data:
• Send the data as text (PT2 tower) using an EBCDIC based codepage.
Sending the programming sequence in normal SCS/DSC format will
have no effect.
• All scanned data will be printed as normal, ie the AFP IOP will show
no indication of the configuration options being interpreted correctly.
• All non-printable characters (eg space) and positioning commands are
ignored within the programming sequence.
• All option settings with syntax or range error will be ignored.
Syntax To activate configuration mode, send the following lead-in string:
&%OPT_=;
To end configuration mode, send the following trailer string:
&%
This causes changed options to be saved. Turn the printer Off and On to
AXIS AFP IOP User’s Manual 19
Section 4: IPDS Parser Function
activate the new options.
All options have the following format:
option string = number
All configuration options must be separated by a semi-colon; line feed,
form feed etc. are ignored.
Example 1 &%OPT_=;
DEFAULT_CODEPAGE = 8;
FRONT_TOP_MARGIN = -100;
&%
Example 2
Note Turn the printer Off and On to activate the new options.
Option strings
&%OPT_=;COAX_C04=5;COAX_C17=1;&%
All supported parameters, their option strings and valid numbers are listed
in the section Configuration Parameters.
