Q:

 Printing Systems Manager (PSM)                                                 
                                                                                
Hello,                                                                          
Is it possible to print on a 6400 with IPDS, coaxial interface and              
Ethernet attached through an I-Data box from clients that access a              
PSM-PSF server?                                                                 
                                                                                
In case it's possible, what limitations does this scenario have, from           
the PSM-PSF functionality stand point?                                          
                                                                                
Thanks for the clarification.                                                   
                                                                               
Regards.                                                                        
                                                                                
A:                                                                              
PSF/AIX does not support 6400 IPDS printers except through PSF Direct           
from a host PSF that supports the 6400 IPDS.  PSM does not affect               
that.                                                                           
                                                                                
Infoprint Manager does support 6400 IPDS printers, both for PSF Direct          
and for "regular" Infoprint Manager printing.  There are several                
libraried ViewBlue items that discuss Infoprint Manager's support               
of the 6400 (64xx); if you are unable to locate the items, please               
reopen this question and I'll find you the specific document numbers.           
                                                                                
Thanks for using ViewBlue.
