XEROX DOCUPRINT 4050/4090 IPS INSTALLATION PLANNING GUIDE 1-11. 1Product overviewThis chapter provides an overview of the features and functions ofthe Xerox DocuPrint 4050 IPS and the 4090 IPS.System overviewThe Xerox DocuPrint 4050 IPS and 4090 IPS are cut-sheet, duplexprinters that are fully compatible with the IBM AFP architecture. Theyaccept an IPDS data stream from any PSF eligible platform, includingMVS, VM, VSE, OS/2, OS/400 (with TCP/IP only), and AIX. They areplug-compatible in the AFP/IPDS environment, and emulate an IBMIPDS Group 3 page printer with the AFIG (Advanced Function Imageand Graphics) option.The IPS printer series is a combination of proven Xerox print enginesmatched with a high-performance RISC-based controller. Eachsystem consists of a Sun workstation controller and the printer,sometimes referred to as the Image Output Terminal (IOT).Host environments The IPS emulates an IBM AFP Group 3 page printer with theAdvanced Function Image and Graphics (AFIG) option and can printin all the following PSF environments:• MVS• VM (channel-attached only)• VSE (channel-attached only)• OS/2• OS/400 (with TCP/IP only)• AIXNote: Although PSF/VSE does not support TCP/IP directly, aprinting system with PSF/2, PSF/6000, or InfoPrint Manager canattach to a PSF/VSE system and the PSF/2, PSF/6000, or InfoPrintManager can furnish the TCP/IP support for the IPS printer.Note: There is no minimum host operating system software levelrequired to support IPS. The minimum PSF levels needed to supportthe IPS are:• PSF/MVS: V2.1• PSF/VM: V2.1• PSF/VSE: V2.2• PSF/400: V3.2• PSF/6000: V2.1• PSF/2: V2.0
