Features and Benefits
Reliability The AXIS 5600 print server provides high performance and reliability
combined with low power consumption. The electronic circuits are
based on the improved AXIS ETRAX100 chip, which comprises an
integrated 32 bit RISC processor and associated network controllers.
Flexibility It supports printing in all the major computer systems and
environments, including five different print methods in the TCP/IP
environment. It also allows you to print on up to three printers
simultaneously.
The integrated IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) function allows for
printing from LAN to LAN via a WAN such as the Internet.
Speed The AXIS ETRAX 100 chip has been specifically designed for LAN
products and benefits users with a faster throughput than a direct PC-
to-printer connection. With a sustained data throughput of more than
1 Mbyte per second, the AXIS 5600 is fast. High speed Centronics
communication such as ECP, Hewlett-Packard Fast Mode, High
Speed and IBM Fast Byte is supported.
Easy to Install Using the available Axis installation tools, you can install the AXIS
5600 into any of the supported networking environments in just a few
minutes.
AXIS ControlPrint You can add security to your available network print resources by
preventing pending print jobs to be printed until you come to the
printer. This feature prevents confidential information to lie waiting
in public. Management features allow you to keep track of printer
usage and costs.
AXIS ControlPrint requires a special version of the firmware and
additional server software. Please contact your Axis reseller for more
information.
