| What version of firmware does my HP 8000 printer need to have in order to print from an IO 3235-010 DIMM?
The printer must have a firmware version of 4.48 or newer in order to function properly. *** Note *** As of 12 Oct 05, the 3235-010 DIMM has been discontinuted. IBM host connectivity for printers previously supported by this DIMM (4050, 8000, 8100, 8150) will be provided through the use of I-O's external print servers. The external print servers provide several advantages over the DIMM including: -current IPDS and SCS firmware, -field upgradeability as new firmware is released eliminating the need to exchange DIMMs, -faster through put, -scalability in that the interface can be moved from the printer when it is replaced by a new printer, -out of sight location for gateway models which gives the user the feeling of everything under the covers, -elimination of hassle trying to locate discontinued JetDirect cards. |
