DocuPrint 180 LPS connection
The Xerox DocuPrint 180 LPS may be ordered with the following
optional connections:
Online interface The online channel interface receives input directly from the host
system. All IBM systems which support the channel-attached 3811/
3211 or 4245 interface are supported. Non-IBM systems are
supported through a variety of connections such as DDI. (Refer to
the DDI description below.)
Offline interface The offline interface is an excellent alternative or addition to an online
operation. It supports 9-track (1600/6250 bpi), 18 track (read only),
and 36-track (3480/3490 format) tapes conforming to one of the
following formats:
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
• IBM (OS/VS/370, OS/360, DOS/VS/370, DOS/360/370)
• Burroughs (MCP 2500-4700, 6700)
• Honeywell (OS 200/2000, OS 200/6000 series)
• Sperry/Univac Series 70 (1100-OS standard files)
• DEC (RSX-11)
• CDC (external format)
• NCR (Century-B1)
• Tape input codes: EBCDIC, ASCII, BCD
• Univac (SDF-formatted tapes)
• ICL (2900 VME/B)

DDI interface The Dynamic Document Interface (DDI) enables communication
between a Xerox DocuPrint 180 LPS and other products via a shared
disk mechanism. The interface allows the other products (such as
DEC, PC, MAC, and UNIX local area network (LAN) workstations) to
save print files to an external hard disk. The Xerox DocuPrint 180
LPS then directly accesses the external hard disk to retrieve files for
printing. The DDI passes data over a high performance SCSI bus.
