The easiest way to connect your bizhub PRO production printer to a mixed-host/LAN environment.

Overview

LinkCom III has been developed by MPI Tech to work efficiently within a mixed-host/LAN environment supporting both SNA and TCP/IP sessions.  It’s a simple solution that converts AFP/IPDF and SCS/DCA to industry-standard PCL 5 or PostScript language used by bizhub™ and other multifunctional devices.

It also provides the ideal migration path for IBM printing in a LAN environment -- and enables IBM systems and standard LAN/PC environments to make full use of the powerful print production features built into every bizhub device.

• Enables both SNA and TCP/IP sessions to the printer and supports finisher options for automated production.


• Standard redirection of one output to a network-connected printer; optional redirection of three outputs to a network via TCP/IP is also available.


• Status reporting directly to the person responsible for the printer.


• Easy plug-and-print installation for the AS/400 environment; mainframe users can also easily migrate SCS/DCA data streams to the LAN.


• Full IPDS color support, 2nd Bar Code printing, password-protected setup, remote upgrading and configuration plus other advanced features.
