242
Requirements
Contact technical support to obtain the latest PTFs for PSF.
For IPDS printing, you also need to install the IPDS option on the
printer.
Configuration Checklist
NOTE: All of the following configuration steps carried out on the
iSeries may require “create” or “change” authority.
1. If you have not already done so, set up the printer and install
the Ethernet Interface. See “Configuration Using The Control
Panel” on page 53.
2. Using the printer control panel, set up the printer for IPDS by
setting the parameters and values shown in Table 10.
3. Set TCP/IP addresses for the printer, such as an IP Address,
Gateway Address, or Subnet Mask. See “Configuration Tools”
on page 52.
4. If the printer and iSeries are not on the same LAN segment,
verify there is a route defined in the TCP/IP route list. If
necessary, use the ADDTCPRTE command to create a route
definition. You need this if your printer is somewhere other than
on a local segment.
5. You need the IP address of the Ethernet Interface to configure
the Ethernet Interface.
