AXIS 5570e/AXIS 5670e User’s Manual Section 4: Setting Up - AS/400 (iSeries) 35Section 4 Setting Up - AS/400 (iSeries)This section describes how to configure the AXIS 5570e/AXIS 5670efor printing SCS and IPDS data streams using SNA and TCP/IPtransport protocols in the AS/400 (iSeries) environment.Note:A number of protocols and print methods are available. Looking atSCS over TCP/IP printing, we strongly recommend the TN5250Ealternative. This print method offers superior control andmanagement features as well as automatic configuration and highthroughput using the AXIS 5570e/AXIS 5670e.If you have decided to use SNA, we recommend the 5494 mode.Compared to the 3174 mode, this alternative yields better textformatting options as well as automatic configuration.Proceed to the setup section that is relevant to your networkenvironment, as described in the table below:SNA is only available for print server models with the SNA option installed.Please refer to Product Model Summary, on page 9PrintingprotocolDatastreams Action CommentSNA - 5494ModeSCS SNA Printing - 5494 Mode, onpage 36Recommended methodfor SNAIPDSTN5250E(TCP/IP) SCS TN5250E printing (SCS over IP), onpage 48Recommended methodfor SCS over TCP/IPPPR/PPD(TCP/IP) IPDS PPR/PPD Printing - IPDS data streams,on page 51Recommended methodfor IPDS over TCP/IP
