The I-O 5735e IPDS/SCS Printer Gateway is a high speed Ethernet-in, Ethernet-out AFP/IPDS - SCS gateway print server designed to convert native IBM host print jobs to PCL, allowing them to be printed by a laser printer on the LAN. Supporting one printer, the 5735e delivers IBM AFP/IPDS and SCS printing via TCP/IP, providing the control and printer feedback found in an IBM host environment.

• Connects one PCL 5e compatible ethernet capable laser printer
• Supports Advanced Function Printing (AFP) using IPDS protocol
• Also supports standard Host printing using SCS protocol
• High speed printing - over 100 pages per minute
• Supports over 100 AFP/IPDS Fonts
• 10 / 100 Mbps Ethernet LAN, auto sensing
• Multiple Host support (AS/400, iSeries, eServer i5, S/390 zSeries, Windows, Unix)
• Multiple LAN protocols (SNA, TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, NetBIOS)
• Host printing via Telnet (TN5250e and TN3270E), SNA (APPC) or AnyNet
• Simple, one step set-up (auto configuration) when using TN5250e or TN3270e
• Host controlled printing, including error reporting, page range printing etc.
• I-O's award winning IBM AFP/IPDS and SCS printer emulations
• Increases print speeds
• Easy to install and use, includes I-O's PrintControl

Features	Benefits
High Speed Printing, 100+ ppm	The I-O 5735e takes advantage of high-speed, high-performance printers without the bottleneck of the parallel port.
AFP/IPDS printing over Ethernet	Both AFP/IPDS and standard (SCS) host print jobs can be seamlessly printed over a LAN.
Enhanced Telnet 5250 (TN5250e) and Telnet 3270 (TN3270e)	Communicates with the IBM Host using native TCP/IP.
True Print Complete	Users are notified when the print job is finished taking the guess work out of printing.
Duplex	Printing can be done on both sides of a page. The full functionality of a duplex printer can be utilized.
Page Offset Functions	Provides more flexibility in page positioning with no need to modify host applications.
Supports over 100 AFP/IPDS Fonts	There are more fonts to choose from than other AFP/IPDS interfaces.
On-board FLASH Memory	Allows for field upgrades providing the latest new features from I-O.
Printer error reporting to the host	Prevents loss of host print data by providing the same level of print status reporting as a twinax or coax printer.
Page range printing	Permits users to print select page ranges from large documents and reports.
Off-loading of Data Conversion	Eliminates unnecessary overhead by converting EBCDIC data to ASCII data directly on the I-O 5735e.
True IBM printer emulations	Permits full-function host printing on the attached LAN printer.
Simultaneous, multi-host printing	Maximizes printer utilization by supporting concurrent printing not only from the host but from Novell, Windows, OS/2, UNIX, etc.
10BaseT and 100BaseT	Provides versatility in attaching to LANs at different speeds.
Auto configuration	Installs in minutes.
