The I-O 5430b& 5431b Bar Code Print Servers are single port, multi-protocol print servers designed to provide support for specialty printers, such as bar code label printers, over Ethernet networks from IBM AS/400, iSeries or eServer i5 host systems.

Connects one parallel printer (I-O 5430b) or one serial printer (I-O 5431b)
Support of most proprietary Bar Code / Label printer languages
10 / 100 Mbps Ethernet LAN, auto sensing
Multiple Host support (AS/400, iSeries, eServer i5, Windows, Unix)
Multiple LAN protocols (SNA, TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, NetBIOS)
Host printing via Telnet (TN5250e), SNA (APPC) or AnyNet
Simple, one step set-up (auto configuration) when using TN5250e
Host controlled printing, including error reporting, page range printing etc.
I-O's award winning IBM printer emulations

Features	Benefits
IBM Host printing over Ethernet	Allows host print jobs to be seamlessly printed over a LAN.
Enhanced Telnet 5250 (TN5250e)and Telnet 3270 (TN3270e)	Communicates with the IBM Host using native TCP/IP.
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 5430B/31B.
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.
Powerful RISC processor	Takes advantage of the LAN printer's maximum print speed even when processing IBM Host jobs.
Unique support of proprietary bar code label printer languages	Print self-tests, diagnostics, dumps, etc., directly to any attached label printer for convenient customization and trouble-shooting.
