I-O 4020 23xx Printer Interface
I-O 4020 Printer Interface
The I-O 4020 Printer Interface models easily attach Lexmark 23XX Plus dot-matrix printers to IBM host systems and are quickly configured through on-board DIP switches and Host/PC download commands. These printer interfaces offer the following features:
- The I-O 4020TX model provides attachment to IBM AS/400, S/3X hosts or 5x94 remote controllers.
- The I-O 4020CX model provides connectivity to IBM 3270-type mainframes and 3174, 3274, or 3276 control units.
- These direct-attach interfaces include the industry's best IBM 4214, 5224/25/56, and 3287/68/62 printer emulations.
- The additional full-sized Centronics parallel port allows for economical and intelligent printer sharing between the IBM host and a PC - or even a LAN.
- The I-O Command Pass-Thru feature allows complete access to all user-programmable printer options, such as printer resident bar code capabilities.
- The interface's seamless integration allows for complete access to all additional paper handling options, like the Tractor 2 feeder.
- APF/BGU printing is supported across all IBM printer emulations.
