Ricoh SP 4520DN User Manual

Printing AFP, IPDS, PDF, PCL, and PostScript
Files
Use this chapter to configure the printer on System i as an IPDS printer.
The printer configured as IPDS will print only IPDS files. With the InfoPrint Server for System i, PostScript,
PDF, and PCL data streams can be transformed to AFP and printed to the printer as IPDS.
•
AFP files are transformed directly by Print Services Facility (PSF/400 – an integrated feature of
OS/400), which then sends the transformed file to the printer.
• SCS files are transformed into IPDS by one of two conversion paths. The path recommended by
IBM – a straight SCS to device-independent IPDS transform – is controlled by setting the
IPDSPASTHR parameter to YES (see step 1 on page 22 "Configuring PSF/400 with
CRTPSFCFG"). Setting IPDSPASTHR to YES provides the best performance because IPDS files are
sent directly to the printer with no transform. If your SCS file requires any AFP processing, PSF/400
will automatically provide the requisite conversion.
