Features and Benefits
Reliability The AXIS 540/640 print server provides high performance and
reliability combined with low power consumption. The electronic
circuits are based on the proven AXIS ETRAX 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.
The integrated IPP function in the AXIS 640/642 allows for
printing from LAN to LAN via a WAN, such as the Internet.
Speed The AXIS ETRAX 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 up to 390
kbytes per second, the AXIS 540/640 is fast. High speed Centronics
communication such as Hewlett-Packard Fast Mode, High Speed and
IBM Fast Byte is supported.
