The Blue KitTM IPDS Flash/Dimm
All HP LaserJet printers use the de facto PCL standard to control the output to the
printed page. The comparative standard for the IBM mainframe and AS/400
environment is called AFP/IPDS. By adding The Blue Kit
IPDS emulation is added to the HP LaserJet printers without having to change the
existing LAN interface.
Simply plug in The Blue Kit
IBM required parameters using the control panel of the HP LaserJet printer.
Y our normal LAN printing will continue as before, but in addition you can receive AFP/
IPDS output over TCP/IP from IBM OS/390, OS/400 and AIX systems to be printed
on your standard HP LaserJet printer.

The Blue Kit
TM
IPDS Flash/Dimm can also be used to add IPDS emulation to HP
LaserJet printers connected to IBM Coax (3270) and Twinax (5250) systems. Using
the MPI Tech Coax or Twinax interfaces (HostCom) for physical connection, The Blue
TM
Kit
IPDS Flash/Dimm will add full IPDS compatibility and offer direct replacement of
IBM printers using the HP LaserJet printers.
