System components
The IPS systems consist of the following major components:
Printer controller The printer controller (also called the
system controller) accepts IPDS data (plus PostScript and PCL
data with the Dual Mode option) from the host, processes the
data, and sends the data to the printer engine using the IPS
operating system. The controller provides the printer with print
data and commands, and receives status information from the
printer.
Printer The printer, also called the Image Output Terminal
(IOT), accepts formatted pages of data from the printer
controller and performs the imaging and printing of documents.
The printer also provides paper stacking, collating, and optional
finishing capabilities you enable using the IPS application
software accessed through the graphical user interface.
