INTRODUCTION
The Epson 3270 coax interface card C82314* with PC auto parallel sharing port
is an optional Epson interface card. It allows the direct connection of supported
Epson ESC/P dot matrix and laser printers to a coax type-A adapter of an IBM
3174/3274/3276 Control Unit or IBM 3270 mainframe system. In addition, a
Centronics compatible mini-parallel port with auto switching allows a PC or
alternate host to share the printer with the 3270 host for optimum printer
utilization.
The Epson interface can emulate IBM 3287, 3268, 4214-1, and 4224 (non-IPDS)
dot matrix printers and IBM 3812-1 and 4028 (non-IPDS) laser printers. When the
interface is installed in an Epson printer with HP LaserJet emulation, the Computer
Output Reduction (COR) feature enables data processing reports to automatically
be reduced and printed on letter size paper. Also, custom Font ID’s allow you to
specify multiple fonts that will automatically be used in your documents.
The Epson interface supports LU3 (DSC) and LUl .(SCS) mode printing. It has a
large selection of user definable setup selections (including IBM RPQ options) that
can be changed and stored in non-volatile memory using commands imbedded
in documents sent to the printer (downloaded from the host). A Command
Pass-Thru (hex transparency) feature allows a user to access the special features
of the Epson printer directly from the coax host. The interface does not support
coax host-controlled color printing options, AFP, IPDS, GDDM, APL, programmed
symbols.
