Information, G544-3290.

IPDS Application Environment

The 3130 supports IBM Advanced Function Presentation (AFP) software, a

collection of licensed programs that let application developers take advantage of

many special kinds of printing, including bar code and optical character recognition

(OCR) output. Three OCR fonts are available from IBM: OCR-A, OCR-B, and OCR

128. Many kinds of bar codes can be obtained. See “240-Pel to 300-Pel Migration

Considerations (IPDS-Only)” on page 15 for additional bar code considerations.

Advanced Function Presentation uses the Intelligent Printer Data Stream (IPDS) to

drive the printer. Refer to the Guide to Advanced Function Presentation,

G544-3876, for more information. The 3130 also supports PostScript and PCL-5e

data streams. See Appendix B, “Software and Hardware Requirements” on

page 59 for additional information about these date streams.

Ÿ Service

The following list summarizes some of the operational capabilities of the 3130:

Ÿ Standalone operation—the 3130 is designed to operate in an unattended

office environment. It does not require a dedicated operator for normal printing

tasks.

Ÿ Operator messages and actions—the 3130 has a 32-character display for

messages, operator instructions, setup options, and host-related status.

Ÿ Beeper—the 3130 has a beeper that can alert operators whenever the 3130

requires attention.

Chapter 1. Introduction to the 3130 Advanced Function Printer

Ÿ Problem indicators— LEDs on a printer icon at the left of the operator panel

indicate where a problem such as a paper jam occurs.

Ÿ Paper jam auto-eject drawers—after a paper jam, you can usually

automatically clear the jammed paper by opening one or two auto-eject

drawers.

Ÿ Traces—the 3130 can perform several kinds of traces, which record details

about printer activities and communications with the control unit and the

controlling computer system to assist service personnel.

Ÿ Print samples—several print sample masters are stored in the 3130 control

memory. Key operators can print these print samples whenever necessary to

sample print quality or solve problems.

Ÿ Authorization levels—You can have one or more persons designated as a

key operator. The key operator performs tasks such as configuring the printer,

cleaning the printer, adding new toner, and replacing supplies.

You can specify that certain operator actions be password-protected; in other

words, only the person who knows the password will be able to perform certain

key operator functions.

Ÿ Toner cartridge—the 3130 monitors the toner supply and alerts the operator

when it should be replenished. In addition, automatic toner recycling reduces

the amount of toner the 3130 uses.

Ÿ Error log—sensors and other error-checking hardware detect status in the

printer. Information about errors is displayed to the operator and logged for

use in correcting problems.

Data Security

The 3130 has the following data security features:

Ÿ You cannot read data from the 3130 back into the controlling computer system.

Ÿ You cannot print data that remains in memory after a job is finished.

Ÿ Images on the photoconductor are removed after each print.

Ÿ The control unit accepts commands from the host to erase all residual print

data and fonts from its memory.

Ÿ You can specify non-spooled mode for most ASCII jobs. Refer to IBM 3130

Advanced Function Printer System Administration Guide for more information.

If many of the printing applications for your company are confidential, consider

placing the 3130 in a controlled-access area.

Fonts

The 3130 supports the following for IPDS:

Ÿ The IBM strategic font set, which includes:

– The IBM Core Interchange Resident Scalable Font Set

– The 4028 Compatibility Resident Font Set

– The IBM Coordinated Font Set

3130 Advanced Function Printer: Introduction and Planning Guide

Ÿ The DBCS Resident Raster, including DBCS Scalable Font Sets (as a

separately-orderable feature)

Ÿ A facility for adding and deleting fonts in the printer. Refer to IBM 3130

Advanced Function Printer System Administration Guide for more information

about managing fonts.

Ÿ Downloading fonts from the host.

For a more detailed description of each font set, see Appendix A, “3130 Font Set”

on page 37.

The 3130 supports the following for PostScript and PCL-5e fonts:

Ÿ Various resident fonts (see “PostScript Resident Font Set” on page 52 and

“PCL5e Resident Font Set” on page 55) You can print samples of resident

fonts from the printer. Refer to IBM 3130 Advanced Function Printer User's

Guide for printing out resident fonts

Ÿ (PostScript only) A facility for adding and deleting fonts in the printer. Refer to

IBM 3130 Advanced Function Printer Administration Guide for more information

about managing fonts.

Ÿ Downloading fonts from the host or server.

Performance and Print Quality

The 3130 prints up to 30 impressions per minute in either simplex or duplex mode

when using long-edge fed paper; it prints up to 15 impressions per minute for

short-edge fed paper. Table 2 on page 8 summarizes the types of paper you can

use and the maximum impressions per minute you can print.

Notes:

1. Actual printer performance is affected by a number of factors, including how

you configure the printer, the complexity of the data you print, the performance

of the host-system and the attachment you use, and the amount of available

memory.

2. The quality of printer output is affected by the paper you use and the

composition of the logical pages you print.

Advanced Function Image and Graphics (IPDS Only)

The 3130 can directly process advanced Image Object Content Architecture (IOCA)

images and Graphics Object Content Architecture (GOCA) graphics data, as

described in Mixed Object Document Content Architecture Reference, SC31-6802.

This, in turn, provides the following performance benefits:

Ÿ The 3130 can process compressed images and vector graphics data in the

GOCA format, thus reducing demand on attachment data transfer and host

storage.

Ÿ The 3130, rather than the host system, decompresses images and rasterizes

vectors, thus reducing host system processing cycles.

Ÿ The 3130 can perform arbitrary scaling operations or resolution correction for

scanned images, which allows some complex jobs to print at greater throughput

by increasing the overall data-processing speed of the printer.

Chapter 1. Introduction to the 3130 Advanced Function Printer

Print Material and Paper Handling

The 3130 can use paper in a variety of sizes and weights, including preprinted

paper, perforated paper, three-hole punched paper, drilled paper, color stock, and

adhesive labels. The 3130 can accept paper with a basis weight of 64 to 160

grams per square meter (17 to 42 pounds). Paper is fed automatically from paper

trays and, after printing, is automatically placed in output stackers.

Table 2 summarizes the paper sizes the 3130 can use and indicates the feed

orientation and the number of impressions per minute for each paper size. See

“Selecting Paper” on page 30 for more information on print materials you can use.

Paper input trays provide automatic, printer-controlled paper tray switching so you

can load unused paper trays while the printer is running. Prints are stacked in

output stackers, which collate printed pages face down and have offsetting

capability.

The duplex model of the 3130 lets you print both sides of paper without restacking

and refeeding the sheets.

3130 Advanced Function Printer: Introduction and Planning Guide

Chapter 2. Planning Overview

Chapter Overview

This chapter provides an overview of the planning process for installing a 3130

printer.

There are two basic types of planning required for installing and using the 3130:

physical planning and system planning.

Ÿ Physical planning consists of:

– Determining the location for the 3130

– Preparing a layout plan for the 3130

– Making sure all 3130 environmental, electrical, and space requirements are

met.

For more information, see Chapter 4, “Preparing the Physical Environment” on

page 19. In addition, IBM offers special assistance with physical planning.

Contact your IBM branch office for information.

Ÿ System planning consists of:

– (IPDS-only) Ordering the Advanced Function Presentation licensed

programs and updates required to use the printer.

– (IPDS-only) Installing and testing the licensed programs and AFP

resources.

– (PostScript and PCL5e-only) Installing colon files and drivers.

– Verifying that the host operating system is at the correct level.

– Incorporating the 3130 into the system configuration and completing the

configuration work sheets.

For more information, see Chapter 3, “Preparing the Processing Environment”

on page 13 and Chapter 5, “Configuring the 3130” on page 25.

 Copyright IBM Corp. 1994, 1996

Implementation Plan

Note

The following checklist contains many of the major tasks that must be

performed before and during 3130 installation. Use this checklist as a basis for

developing your own detailed implementation plan.

Also, note that the tasks you need to perform depend on whether or not you are

already running Advanced Function Presentation (AFP) programs.

Step One–Identify Team and Plan Layout

1. Identify the people who can prepare the physical site, identify and test

required software, and configure the host systems. Make sure to plan for

the 3130 and the attachment you use to connect it to your host system.

2. Order the 3130, including optional features you require, such as extra

memory.

3. Order any cabling, lines, equipment, or software you require for the

attachment you use to connect the 3130 to your host system.

4. (IPDS-only) Order the IBM Advanced Function Presentation licensed

programs required for your system. If you already use IBM Advanced

Function Presentation licensed programs, make sure that they are at the

service level required to support the 3130.

5. Make sure the host operating system is at the level required to support the

Advanced Function Presentation licensed programs and their updates

(IPDS) and printer drivers and colon files (PostScript and PCL5e).

6. (IPDS-only) Determine which printer resolution will be used, and ensure that

the host library resources (fonts, page segments, overlays, FORMDEFs,

and PAGEDEFs) are compatible with the printer resolution you select.

7. Prepare a plan for selecting and testing forms for use with the 3130.

8. Determine the location for the 3130 and arrange for any changes to the

site.

9. Identify the internal delivery route for the 3130.

10. Prepare a space layout plan.

11. Determine who will install the electrical wiring and outlets.

12. Create a conversion plan for line-printer data and electronic overlays.

13. Prepare a plan for creating, converting, and testing applications that will be

used with the 3130.

Step Two–Review Plans, Order Supplies, and Prepare Site

1. Review installation plans with the IBM installation planning representative.

See “Physical Installation Worksheet” on page 23 for the worksheet.

2. Order initial supplies for the 3130.

3. Ensure that attachment hardware is on order.

4. Schedule the installation of lines and equipment required for the

attachment.

10 3130 Advanced Function Printer: Introduction and Planning Guide

5. Schedule the installation of electrical wiring and outlets.

6. Ensure that required host system updates are installed.

7. Begin installing and testing the Advanced Function Presentation licensed

programs and updates on the host system.

Step Three–Review Progress of Site Preparation

1. Review site-preparation progress with the IBM installation planning

representative.

2. Ensure that the electrical wiring and outlets are being installed on schedule.

3. Ensure that the attachment lines and equipment is being installed on

schedule.

Step Four–Ensure that Site Preparation is Complete

1. Ensure that installation and testing of electrical wiring and outlet is

complete.

2. Ensure that all site preparation activity is complete.

3. Gather information for the configuration work sheets in Chapter 5,

“Configuring the 3130” on page 25 and schedule an NCP Generation if

needed.

Important

Before the customer engineer can install the 3130, you must

complete a configuration worksheet for the attachment you plan to

use. Completing the attachment worksheets usually requires input from

the personnel responsible for network and device driver configuration.

For detailed worksheets, instructions, and examples, refer to IBM

InfoPrint 60; 3130, 3160, and 3935 Advanced Function Printer:

Attachment Configuration Handbook, S544-3977. If you do not have a

copy of the handbook, ask your marketing representative to obtain one

for you. Information is also available on the Internet at

http://can.ibm.com/ibmprinters.

Step Five–Arrival of the 3130

1. Contact the customer engineer and arrange to have the 3130 installed.

2. Arrange to have the 3130 attached to the host system.

3. Complete tests of the Advanced Function Presentation licensed programs,

including the IBM-supplied installation verification procedures.

Additional Planning Tasks

Here are some other issues to consider before you install the 3130:

Ÿ Training. Who will need training on the 3130 and AFP? Who will conduct the

training sessions? When will training be scheduled?

Ÿ Implementation. How will the 3130 be phased into production? Which

applications will use the 3130 first?

Chapter 2. Planning Overview 11

Ÿ Documentation. Which local procedures need to be changed? Who will be

responsible for changing local procedures? Who will need copies of IBM

hardware and software documents?

Ÿ Supplies. How large should the initial 3130 supply order be? What is the

local procedure for ensuring that supplies are kept in stock? What is the

anticipated usage of the 3130?

12 3130 Advanced Function Printer: Introduction and Planning Guide

Chapter 3. Preparing the Processing Environment

Chapter Overview

This chapter contains information to help system programmers integrate the

3130 into the existing processing environment. The basic hardware, software,

and application requirements for the 3130 are described in Appendix B,

“Software and Hardware Requirements” on page 59.

Performance Considerations

Ÿ The quality of 3130 output is affected by the paper you use and the

composition of the logical pages you print. To ensure printing legibility in your

application, test small (4-point) fonts and special characters such as logos in

your application. Refer to the IBM Advanced Function Printer Cut-Sheet Paper

Reference for information about these considerations.

Ÿ The following factors affect the performance of the system and directly affect

communication to the 3130:

– Speed of the computer system

– Amount of available memory

– Priority of tasks assigned in the system

– Control program used to drive the printer

– Attachment type and line speed.

Ÿ Consider the following when setting up your host-attachment configuration:

– Before attaching the 3130 to non-IBM equipment, ensure that the

equipment supports the 3130. The equipment vendor can answer your

questions about configuration options and other attachment issues.

– High-speed, direct-access storage devices (DASD) are recommended for

spool data sets and library data sets, particularly for printing workloads

consisting of documents with many fonts and images.

– Printer performance is best when high-use devices are used on a separate

attachment from the 3130. Printer throughput can be degraded if the 3130

is attached with other high-use devices such as disk units, tape units, or

another 3130 that prints complex documents.

Ÿ Printer traces, which you can run to help diagnose problems with the

attachment, the software, or the printer microcode, run in the background while

the printer performs its normal operations, and may reduce throughput.

Ÿ When memory can hold fonts and images for several pages at one time,

performance improves substantially. Complex documents require more

memory and, therefore, can take longer to print.

Ÿ To minimize the downloading of fonts, consider using printer resident fonts

when possible. When using IPDS, also consider marking host fonts as "public"

to allow the printer to capture and internally cache frequently used non-resident

fonts. You can order up to 32MB of additional memory in increments of 16MB.

To order additional memory, contact your IBM marketing representative.

 Copyright IBM Corp. 1994, 1996

Compatibility Considerations

Here are some factors to consider if you are sending jobs from other page printers

to the 3130:

Ÿ (IPDS-Only) The 3130 supports fonts in the same format as those for the IBM

3160, 3820, 3825, 3827, 3828, 3835, and 3900 printers. User-modified or

user-created 3800 printer fonts are not compatible with the 3130 fonts.

Ÿ Although the 3130 can print edge-to-edge, consider registration and paper size

variations when defining the margins.

Ÿ The 3130 can print to the paper’s edge, but for the best print quality, margins

are recommended as follows:

Edges:

2.5 mm (0.1 in.)

Punched holes: 3 mm (1.2 in.)

Ÿ The 3130 default point of origin is the top left corner of the short side of the

media.

Attachments

Important

Attaching your 3130 to your host system requires configuration changes to the

host system. Depending on the type of attachment and the host system you

use, some configuration changes may need to be performed before the 3130

can be installed. Several 3130 configuration parameters require values that

match values in your host system; at the least, you need to be prepared to

provide these values to the customer engineer who installs the 3130. Refer to

IBM InfoPrint 60; 3130, 3160, and 3935 Advanced Function Printer: Attachment

Configuration Handbook for more details about configuring host systems.

Advanced Function Presentation Licensed Programs (IPDS-Only)

Some Advanced Function Presentation (AFP) licensed programs are required for

the operation of the 3130; others are optional. Work with your users to determine

which optional advanced functions they need. For a list of publications that

describe the programs you require for a particular environment, as well as a

summary of Advanced Function Presentation concepts, products, and benefits,

refer to the Guide to Advanced Function Presentation, G544-3876.

Installing and Verifying AFP Programs

Install and verify AFP programs before you install the 3130. The licensed programs

include verification procedures to help you install the software correctly. In addition,

the system programmer is responsible for:

Ÿ Creating the resources (page definitions, electronic overlays, form definitions,

and page segments) that the resource libraries will contain.

Ÿ Creating or modifying the PSF startup procedure to include resource libraries

and attachment information.

Ÿ Enabling printer resident fonts, if necessary.

14 3130 Advanced Function Printer: Introduction and Planning Guide

Conversion

If Advanced Function Presentation is available on another printer, you may want to

begin the conversion effort before you install the 3130. Some tasks to consider

include:

Ÿ Changing font character sets

Ÿ Converting line-printer applications to page-printer applications

Ÿ Converting preprinted forms to electronic overlays

Ÿ Creating new applications by using electronic overlays

Ÿ Enhancing existing applications to take advantage of 3130 functions

Ÿ Investigating applications that have special programming requirements.

240-Pel to 300-Pel Migration Considerations (IPDS-Only)

The 3130 can print at 240-pel or 300-pel resolution. Usually, converting from

240-pel to 300-pel resolution requires little effort. You may need to evaluate

applications that create complex printed pages with images, multiple fonts,

graphics, and overlays for visual differences that occur at 300-pel resolution.

The following sections describe some more issues to consider if you choose to

migrate from 240-pel to 300-pel resolution.

IOCA Images and IM Images

The 3130 printer supports image printing in one of two formats: IM image or IOCA

image. If you print at 300-pel resolution, 240-pel IM images are automatically

converted to IOCA and scaled to 300-pels.

While the 300-pel image and the 240-pel image will be the identical size, you may

see some differences in the shading, diagonal lines, and curves of the image.

Applications that produce images that are sensitive to exact duplication should be

tested before migrating them to 300-pel resolution.

GOCA Objects

Graphical objects defined with vectors should look the same at 240-pel or 300-pel

resolution because the 3130 builds the bit map for GOCA objects.

Fonts

When migrating print workload to the 3130, first determine if the fonts used by the

application are resident in the 3130 or supported by the IBM PSF software as

300-pel raster fonts. Appendix A, “3130 Font Set” on page 37 details the fonts

that the 3130 supports.

If the font you need is supported by the 3130, the 300-pel version of the font will be

provided either from the resident outline font library or from the host raster-font

library, to be downloaded from the host.

Chapter 3. Preparing the Processing Environment 15

Notes:

1. For MVS, make sure to use the PSF APSRMARK utility to mark the resident

fonts before you use them. PSF/MVS also ships another utility, APSRCF30,

which you can use to convert 240-pel fonts to 300-pel fonts.

2. For VSE, make sure to use the PSF APTRMARK utility to mark the resident

fonts before you use them. PSF/VSE also ships another utility, APTVCF30,

which you can use to convert 240-pel fonts to 300-pel fonts.

See “PSF Support Notes” on page 62 for more information. Refer to PSF/MVS:

System Programming Guide and PSF/VSE: System Programming Guide for

information about these utilities. To create fonts from Adobe Type 1 fonts, you can

use the Type Transformer, which is shipped with PSF/2.

The 3130 300-pel printed output will have the same line and page endings, but the

right margins may not perfectly match those of the 240-pel version. For example,

the typical line variation for a 12-point font is ± 13 mm (0.05 in.) or about one-half a

character width.

If the font requested is not supported by the 3130 or by PSF, you can use either a

supported substitute font or obtain a 300-pel version of the font from a font vendor.

If you use a substitute font, the line endings, page endings, and right margins may

be different from the 240-pel printed version.

Page Definitions and Form Definitions

Page definitions and form definitions often contain images and fonts that are

dependent on resolution. Check these resources to see if they specify fonts,

overlays, and page segments that need to be considered for migration or

conversion. Also, overlays can specify other objects such as fonts and page

segments that may need to be considered for migration or conversion.

Bar Codes

The 3130 can print the following types of bar codes:

Ÿ BCOCA - If the print data set was designed to run on a printer with BCOCA, it

can be run with little or no change on a 3130. Some bar codes may print

slightly differently on the 3130. Some differences include:

– The 3812, 3816, and 4028 insert a blank area (called a quiet zone) at the

beginning of the bar code area. Other printers, such as the 3130, 4224,

4230, and 4234 do not.

– The Code128 modifier may print in a different position with the 3130.

– EAN2, EAN5, UPC2, and UPC5 bar codes may print larger than they did

on previous printers.

See the reference materials for your software and printers for more specific

details on bar code implementation. For implementing BCOCA bar codes, see

your application software documentation for information.

Ÿ Bar Codes Generated by DCF - When a program such as Document

Composition Facility (DCF) is used to generate bar codes using draw rules, the

output should be tested on the 3130 with the scanning equipment used for

reading the bar codes. The different resolution of the printer may cause very

slight differences in the placement of the bar code components.

16 3130 Advanced Function Printer: Introduction and Planning Guide

Ÿ Bar Code Fonts - Non-resident bar code fonts also may be used. Check with

your font vendor for the availability of the desired 300-pel rasterized bar code

fonts.

Overlay Generation Language/370

With the Overlay Generation Language/370 (OGL/370), you can define overlays

used to create forms. The overlay components (offsets, line lengths, line thickness,

radii, and so on) are automatically scaled by the 3130 with the PSF software.

Some differences may occur with slight “stair-stepping” effects for diagonal lines

with rounded corners and some shading changes.

In addition, overlays created with OGL can specify other resources such as fonts

and page segments which may need to be considered for migration or conversion.

You should test applications using OGL/370 before migrating them to the 3130.

AS/400 Migration Considerations (IPDS-Only)

Here are some things to consider if you migrate your print workload to a 3130

attached to an AS/400 operating in the OS/400 environment.

Bolding of Characters

Both OfficeVision and Data Description Specification (DDS, the native OS/400 key

word HIGHLIGHT function) enable you to make characters bold by using a font

modification parameter. The printer automatically prints the indicated characters

bold for any font supported by the printer. The 3130 printer supports this same

function for the set of fonts resident in the printer that have bold versions. See

“AS/400 Bolding Function, Native and OfficeVision (IPDS-Only)” on page 50 for a

list of the 3130 fonts and what will occur when the bolding function is invoked.

Note: Note that bolding may cause changes to line length, and in some cases

may cause information to exceed the page width.

Enlarge Print Function

OfficeVision/400, the Advanced Function Presentation Utilities/400 and the Data

Description Specification (DDS, native OS/400) keyword for CHRSIZ enable you to

direct the printer to enlarge characters. This function is not supported on the 3130

using fonts selected by FGID (Font Global ID). This function is only supported

under DDS if you use GDDM fonts. GDDM fonts are selected by name, such as

ADMVMOB for Multinational Open Block.

Box Draw Function

OfficeVision lets you draw boxes with the cursor and then print them as drawn.

The 3130 supports this function if you specify ON for the AS/400 Box Draw

Enhancement printer configuration item. If you specify OFF for the AS/400 Box

Draw Enhancement printer, boxes drawn with OfficeVision will have breaks in them.

Note: To draw boxes correctly, the 3130 substitutes code page 1091 for code

page 259.

Chapter 3. Preparing the Processing Environment 17

Other Font Considerations

IPDS, PostScript and PCL5e fonts are listed in Appendix A, “3130 Font Set” on

page 37 and are resident in the 3130.

Your job can download fonts not listed if you have them on your host system and

your job requires them. Usually, the printer stores them in RAM and deletes them

whenever the 3130 is powered off. However, the printer can store downloaded

IPDS fonts on the hard disk.

A facility in the printer allows you to add fonts from a diskette to the hard drive and

avoid losing them at power off. It also allows you to delete fonts from the hard

drive. The fonts are:

For PostScript: Type 1 fonts

For IPDS:

AFP outline fonts containing either Type 1 or Character

Identifier (CID)-keyed technology

For PCL:

TrueType or Intellifont fonts

Altitude Range

Ventilation

The altitude range permitted for 3130 operation is sea level to 2100 meters (7000

feet).

The 3130 operates best in an air-conditioned computer room with year-round

humidity control and recirculated, filtered air. Dust and other contamination can

cause machine problems.

To reduce any health risks associated with preprinted forms, follow IBM preprinted

forms recommendations and provide appropriate ventilation to the printer area. The

American Society of Heating, Refrigeration, and Air Conditioning Engineers

(ASHRAE) recommends a minimum of 0.42–0.57 metersó/minute

(15–20 ftó/minute) per person of outdoor air make-up for an office size of 12 ft x 12

ft x 8 ft (32.4 Meteró) during human occupancy (ASHRAE 62–1989).

For information about selecting and safely using preprinted forms, refer to the IBM

Advanced Function Printer Cut-Sheet Paper Reference.

Heat and Airflow

Average heat dissipation of the 3130 while printing is less than 930 Kcal/hour (3690

BTU/hour) based on 1.08kVA for the printer.

No airflow restrictions apply if the 3130 is installed according to the guidelines and

floor plans established in this document.

Attention

Do not connect the 3130 to any 380—415 IT power distribution system

(impedance grounded neutral system).

Make sure that your installation meets the electrical power requirements listed in

Table 5 before the printer is delivered. In addition:

Ÿ Reserve a dedicated electrical outlet to support the printer and to allow the

printer to be disconnected from power. This can be:

– A compatible receptacle installed near the 3130.

– A circuit breaker that breaks all live poles. This circuit breaker must be

dedicated to the 3130 printer.

Ÿ Provide electrical outlets for auxiliary equipment, such as modems or

communication modules. If necessary, make sure a telephone line and jack

are available.

Ÿ The 3130 is equipped with an approved plug for your safety. Use it in

conjunction with a properly grounded receptacle. Refer to Appendix C to find

out which type plug is supplied in your country.

Physical Layout and Space Requirements

Figure 1 on page 22 shows the space requirements for a permanent installation.

As you plan your physical layout:

Ÿ Install the 3130 away from the main traffic pattern. Allow space for key

operators and customer engineers to perform their tasks. This space should

not extend into walkways.

Ÿ Install the 3130 in a location that is convenient for the key operator and other

users. For example, consider whether the planned location is close to printer

supply storage areas and to output distribution areas.

Ÿ Allow 2.1 meters (83 in.) between the floor and the lowest permanently

attached object above the 3130, such as a light or a cable rail. This layout

gives printer operators and customer engineers space in which to work.

Ÿ Check the route that the 3130 must travel from your loading dock to the

location where it will be installed, to make sure it fits through the doorways and

halls. When possible, move the printer from the dock to its installation location

on its shipping pallet.

Installation Requirements

Procedures for installing the 3130 are included with the printer and in the 3130

Advanced Function Printer: Maintenance Information. This section describes only

physical installation requirements. See “Implementation Plan” on page 10 for

complete planning information. The installation is done by a service person;

however, the customer is responsible for the following pre-installation requirements:

Ÿ Make sure the environmental, electrical, and space requirements specified in

this chapter are met. Use the “Physical Installation Worksheet” on page 23 to

complete this step.

Ÿ Make sure the receiving area and internal delivery route contain no obstacles

that might interfere with moving the 3130 to its planned location.

– Halls and doorways must be large enough for the printer to pass through,

and corners and angles must be large enough to permit the printer to turn.

For example, the minimum doorway opening through which the 3130 can

pass from a 91.5 cm (36 in.) wide aisle is 75 cm (30 in.).

– Ramps must have no more than 12 degrees, 50 minutes incline to allow

clearance for the lower edge of the printer with its supporting feet retracted.

22 3130 Advanced Function Printer: Introduction and Planning Guide

– Elevators and elevator doorways must be able to accommodate the size

and weight of the printer and the people who are moving it.

– Stairs, sills and gaps, and carpeting can make it difficult to roll the printer.

Ÿ Do not tilt the printer past a 15° angle.

Ÿ Ensure that the floor is level within ±1.5° from earth horizontal in any plane.

Ÿ Ensure that an approved electrical outlet with correct power is reserved for the

3130, and that it can be reached with the power cable.

Ÿ If the 3130 is being installed in an area with a raised floor, ensure that the

access hole in the raised floor is large enough for both the communication

attachment cables and the power cable.

Physical Installation Worksheet

IBM InfoPrint 60; 3130, 3160, and 3935 Advanced Function Printer: Attachment

Configuration Handbook contains the configuration worksheets for the items that

follow. Items are included here as a reminder.

Font Management

The printer control unit allows you to add fonts, delete fonts, list the printer resident

fonts, and list fonts on the diskette.

A detailed description of managing fonts and how to do it is in IBM 3130 Advanced

Function Printer System Administration Guide.

Data Stream Configurations

The 3130 can process IPDS, PostScript, and PCL data streams simultaneously. To

ensure that the printer handles your jobs properly, complete the appropriate

worksheets in IBM InfoPrint 60; 3130, 3160, and 3935 Advanced Function Printer:

Attachment Configuration Handbook. The IPDS Handbook for Printers That Use

the Advanced Function Common Control Unit contains information about IPDS.

System Attachments

Appendix B, “Software and Hardware Requirements” on page 59 summarizes the

host environments that support the 3130 and the attachments than run under each.

26 3130 Advanced Function Printer: Introduction and Planning Guide

Important

Before the customer engineer can install the 3130, you must complete the

appropriate attachment configuration worksheets. For detailed worksheets,

instructions, and examples, refer to the IBM InfoPrint 60; 3130, 3160, and 3935

Advanced Function Printer: Attachment Configuration Handbook. If you do not

have a copy, ask your marketing representative to get you one. Installing these

attachments may require changes to your host system configuration.

Twinaxial Attachment

Twinaxial attachments directly attach the 3130 to an AS/400. A twinaxial cable

system supports cable-through capability, which allows more than one device to be

connected to a single cable. Refer to Application System/400 Printer Device

Programming, SC31-3713.

Ethernet TCP/IP and NetWare Attachment

The 3130 is connected to a host Ethernet using the ‘Integrated Ethernet LAN

adapter’ contained in the control unit.

The control unit can be attached directly to standard Thick (10Base5) Ethernet

coaxial cable (Feature Code 4163). The output connector is a thick 15-pin D-shell

“slide-latch” type that is compatible with IEEE 802.3 Section 7.6. Connection to

thick Ethernet media is through an Ethernet/IEEE 802.3 AUI cable available from

OEM vendors. Attachment to thin (10Base2) or twisted-pair (10BaseT) Ethernet

media is through external transceivers.

The coaxial T connector is used in addition to the 10Base2 transceiver to connect

to the thin Ethernet coaxial cable. You should use a customer-supplied RJ45

unshielded twisted-pair cable (must meet IEEE 802.3 requirements) to attach the

10BaseT transceiver to the Ethernet twisted-pair hub.

SDLC SNA Attachment

The 3130 can be attached to a host SDLC network by RS232 or V.35 cabling using

the Four-Port Multiprotocol Communication Controller Adapter contained in the

printer control unit. The Four-Port Multiprotocol Communication Controller Adapter

connects, through a 3-meter (10-foot) Four-Port Multiprotocol Interface cable to

either a 3-meter (10-foot) RS232 cable or to a 2-meter (7-foot) V.35 cable.

Notes:

1. SNA SDLC is intended to run on leased (non-switched) lines in point-to-point

mode for either EIA 232 (19.2 Kbps) or V.35 (56 Kb/second) for limited

distance modems or modem eliminators. You may also run V.35 (56 Kbps) on

leased line (DDS1 Digital Data Service) point-to-point with digital DSU/CSU

modems. Using speeds less than 19.2 Kbps, multipoint operation, or both can

slow printer performance and is not recommended. Clocking is provided by

setting limited distance modems or modem eliminators to an internal clock, or

by setting digital DSU/CSU modems to a network clock.

2. The 3130 can replace a 3820 printer, but for better performance, change the

MAXDATA or MAXFRAME and RU sizes in your VTAM, NCP, or system

configurations.

Chapter 5. Configuring the 3130 27

Token-Ring (SNA, TCP/IP, and NetWare) Attachment

The 3130 can be attached to a host system using a 4 Mbps or 16 Mbps token-ring

local area network (LAN) with the IBM Token-Ring cabling and Token-Ring

High-Performance Adapter contained in the printer control unit.

The printer can be located a maximum of 100 meters (328 feet) from the 8228

Multistation Access Unit or 8230 Controlled Access Unit. The 8219 or 8220 Optical

Fiber Repeaters can be used to increase this distance.

PC Parallel Attachment

The 3130 is connected to a host through the Integrated PC Parallel Adapter in the

printer control unit. A standard PC parallel cable or a separately orderable network

print server (NPS) connects the printer to the host computer.

28 3130 Advanced Function Printer: Introduction and Planning Guide

Chapter 6. Ordering and Storing Supplies

Chapter Overview

This chapter describes how to order and store the supplies that the 3130 uses.

Printer Supplies

Table 9 lists printer supplies, parts, the part numbers you can use to order them,

and an estimate of how often they need to be replaced. The yields listed in the

table are approximations. They are not a warranty or guarantee of minimum life,

and are provided only to assist in supplies planning. Analyze your actual usage

figures to determine how much of each supply item to stock.

Actual supply life varies according to printer usage, toner settings, paper

characteristics, temperature, and humidity. In addition, special applications (such

as, adhesive labels, extensive graphics, bar codes, landscape applications, and

pre-printed forms) may significantly reduce supply life.

When the 3130 runs low on a particular supply, it displays a message on the

operator panel.

Selecting Paper

Printing on paper that does not comply with paper specifications may result in

paper jams and print quality degradation. The 3130 uses standard white paper,

pastel-colored paper, prepunched paper, preprinted paper, cardstock, and adhesive

labels.

Xerographic paper is required to satisfy various electrical, heat, and mechanical

characteristics. Select only high quality papers and forms to avoid print quality and

printer paper handling problems. IBM recommends that you initially test several

reams of special use materials in your 3130 before you purchase large quantities

for a given application. For more detailed information regarding paper

characteristics and pretesting, refer to Advanced Function Printer Cut-Sheet Paper

Reference and the IBM 3130 Advanced Function Printer User's Guide. Table 10

on page 31 summarizes the paper sizes the 3130 can use and indicates the feed

Ÿ Use only the base stacker or upper stacker. Using the side stacker for labels

may damage the printer.

Ÿ Load labels face down in the upper sub tray, lower sub tray, or main tray.

Ÿ Run labels only in simplex mode.

Ÿ Before ordering large quantities of your labels, run several small jobs to be sure

they work properly.

Ÿ Refer to IBM 3130 Advanced Function Printer User's Guide for more details

about running labels.

Prepunched Paper

Prepunched paper should be flat and without deformation. Discard paper with

ragged or damaged hole edges. Do not allow chad (the little paper bits that result

from punching) or paper dust to adhere to the paper.

Supplies with prepunched holes must conform to the following specifications:

Ÿ Maximum of four holes

Ÿ Maximum hole diameter of 10 mm (0.39 in.)

Ÿ Holes may not be located in, or protrude into the area marked by the diagonal

lines in the following figures; otherwise, the paper sensor detects the holes and

may give false paper jam errors.

Chapter 6. Ordering and Storing Supplies 33

Preprinted Paper

Preprinted paper has ink applied before the printer prints on it. Be sure that ink

used in preprinting is non-volatile and contains drying or resin oils. Ink must not

transfer when fusing temperatures are 200°C (392°F) and pressures are 450kPA

(65 lbs/in²) for several seconds. IBM recommends the following inks:

Ÿ Cured by ultraviolet

Ÿ Cured by heat (Tinplate ink)

Ÿ Dried by oxidative polymerization

The shaded area in Figure 4 should not contain printing. Printing in this area can

cause false double-sheet feeds.

Figure 4. Preprinted Sheet

Envelopes

For optimum printing results, use either new 90 g/mò (24 lb) sulfite (100%)

chemical wood pulp) or 25% cotton bond envelopes. Before ordering large

quantities of your envelopes, run several small jobs to make sure that they work

properly. This includes envelopes with rough or highly textured surfaces, such as

laid finishes.

The laser-printing process heats envelopes to a temperature of 175°C (350°F).

Use only envelopes that are able to withstand these temperatures without sealing,

excessive curling, wrinkling, or releasing hazardous emissions. Check with the

supplier of the envelopes you plan to use to determine if they are usable with laser

printers.

For optimum performance and to prevent paper jams, do not use envelopes that

34 3130 Advanced Function Printer: Introduction and Planning Guide

Ÿ Have excessive curl or twist

Ÿ Are stuck together

Ÿ Are damaged in any way

Ÿ Contain windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or deep embossing

Selecting, Testing, and Ordering Paper Forms

To get the maximum print quality and reliability from your 3130, IBM recommends

that you rely on the Advanced Function Printer Cut-Sheet Paper Reference, your

paper forms supplier, and your marketing representative to help you choose the

best forms and special-purpose materials for your applications.

Storing Paper and Supplies

Store paper and supplies that you intend to use soon near the printer, both for

convenience and to condition the paper.

Otherwise, store paper and supplies

Ÿ In their original wrappers, away from heat or dampness

Ÿ On a flat surface, such as a shelf, but not on the floor

Ÿ In a closable cabinet for protection and monitoring.

Store forms and special-purpose materials in an area where the temperature and

humidity are similar to the environment where you will use them. Avoid areas with

extreme heat or humidity. Extended exposure to extremes can permanently

damage the materials. Storing forms in an area where relative humidity is above

AS/400 Bolding Function, Native and OfficeVision (IPDS-Only)

The following tables show the typeface substitutions that occur on the 3130 printer

when an application running in native OS/400 or OfficeVision uses the “bolding”

function. The tables list the original typeface, the typeface that the 3130

substitutes, and the FGIDs of both.

Notes:

1. This support is available for resident fonts only.

2. The bold font may have different metrics than the original font; this can affect

line endings.

PostScript Resident Font Set

This font set is available in SBCS outline 300 pel only.

The 3130 has three sets of resident PostScript fonts. These three sets are:

Ÿ Fifty-six Type 1 fonts. A few of these fonts have names that are identical to

names of fonts in the set of Adobe standard fonts.

Ÿ Thirteen duplicate Type 1 fonts with different names. These fonts are

duplicates of fonts from the first set, with their names changed for IBM

compatibility purposes.

Ÿ Ten Type 42 Fonts. These are TruType fonts converted to Type 42 format for

use by PostScript. Some of them have significantly fewer characters than

PostScript fonts normally have. None of them provide all of the characters for

the PostScript Standard encoding or ISO Latin 1 encoding.

For six of these fonts, the names are the names of the corresponding Type 1

typeface. Four of them have names tht start with the names of the corresponding

Type 1 typeface, and have a "TT" suffix. The "TT" distinguishes them from the

like-named Type 1 fonts, so that you can access both of them.

Appendix B. Software and Hardware Requirements

Important

Table 43 on page 68 summarizes the support that various versions of PSF

provide the 3130. Note that the information it contains is subject to change,

and therefore should be used for general planning only. For more detailed

information about host software requirements, refer to Advanced Function

Presentation: Printer Information, G544-3290.

Attachments

The 3130 supports up to three simultaneously active attachment interfaces with

switching under microcode control. Only one IPDS host can be attached at a time.

The following are standard with every 3130:

Ÿ PC Parallel Interface

Ÿ Ethernet Interface (10BaseT, 10Base2, or 10Base5)

One optional interface slot is available for one of the following:

Ÿ Twinaxial Interface

Ÿ Token-Ring Interface

Ÿ SDLC Interface

The data streams for each attachment are:

Attachment (Protocol)

Twinaxial (Arctic)

Intelligent Printer Data Stream (IPDS) Considerations

Host system software is required for attaching to the host system and for creating

the IPDS data stream. System software is the same set of AFP programs that are

used for the AFP family of printers. The following central processing unit (CPU)

configurations support the 3130:

Ÿ AS/400

Ÿ PS/2 and PC Local Area Networks (LAN)

Ÿ RISC System/6000 LAN

Ÿ ES/4381

Ÿ 308X

Ÿ ES/3090

Ÿ ES/9000

Ÿ ES/9370

Ÿ ES/9371

Connectivity to the host processors is through the following architectures:

Ÿ Twinaxial

Ÿ SDLC (SNA V.24 19.2 Kbps)

Ÿ SDLC (SNA V.35 56 Kbps)

Ÿ Token-Ring (SNA)

Ÿ Token-Ring (TCP/IP)

PCL-5e and PostScript Considerations

The 3130 can support PCL-5e and PostScript through a variety of attachments.

This section describes a few of them, but it is not a complete list.

Network Operating Systems

IBM OS/2 LAN Server

Ÿ Token Ring using TCP/IP and Ethernet using TCP/IP

Ÿ Network Print Server using TCP/IP and NetBios

Novell NetWare: Novell NetWare 3.11 and later releases support the 3130.

Ÿ Token Ring using IPX/SPX for print server mode only

Ÿ Ethernet using IPX/SPX for print server mode only

Ÿ Network print server attached to the printer PC parallel interface for remote

printer mode or print server mode on Token Ring or Ethernet

Microsoft LAN Manager

Ÿ Token Ring using TCP/IP and Ethernet using TCP/IP

Ÿ Network Print Server using TCP/IP and NetBios

PCL-5e and PostScript Drivers

Although Table 41 on page 62 shows the drivers that are shipped with the 3130,

IBM recommends that you get these drivers from the Internet and install them on

your system before your machine arrives. The Universal Resource Locator (URL)

for the World Wide Web is

http://www.can.ibm.com/ibmprinters

Note: Each driver has a README file. Print it and read it before installing or

using the driver.

PCL-5e and PostScript L2 data streams through print drivers shipped with the

printer:

Ÿ OS/2 2.11 Service Pack and later (32 bit support only), including the OS/2 LAN

Server

Note: Before using IBM printer drivers on OS/2 2.11, obtain and install

FixPac, XR_B103 on your workstation. To obtain FixPac, contact IBM OS/2

Support at 1-407-994-5544.

Ÿ Microsoft Windows 3.1 and Windows 95

RISC System/6000: AIX supports the 3130 through a “colon” file driver diskette

shipped with the printer. AIX Version 3.2.5 and Version 4.1 are supported.

OS/400 Host Print Transforms

If you need to transform AFP into PCL-5e, OS/400 requires customization objects.

See “Host Print Transforms for OS/400” on page 64 for more information about

these objects.

PSF Support Notes

Basic N_Up and Enhanced N_Up Printing:

Ÿ Basic N_UP

Enables printing output that places one, two, three, or four pages in sequence

in equal-sized partitions on each side of a sheet. Two 8.5 x 11 inch application

pages can print two-up on a single 11 x 17 inch sheet. For duplex operations,

each side of the form or sheet can have up to four pages.

62 3130 Advanced Function Printer: Introduction and Planning Guide

Ÿ Enhanced N_UP (Page Positioning)

Enables the following:

– Page Orientation – places individual pages in any position on either side of

the sheet in any orientation and in any size that fits on the sheet.

– Overlays – places overlays relative to any partition origin with or without

variable page data from the application program. You can specify different

overlays for each page.

– Offsets – specifies different offsets for each page.

– Form Ejection – ejects to a new partition or a new sheet.

PSF/MVS Support

Ÿ PSF/MVS V2.2.0:

– With APAR OW12840, supports TCP/IP (Token Ring and Ethernet)

– With APAR OW15018, allows the 3130 to accept input from non-IPDS

attachments intermittently while the PSF attachment is active

– With APAR OW14128, supports DBCS scalable (outline) fonts and capture

of raster fonts

System Test

SNA Token-Ring uses NetView for recording errors. Token-Ring uses the ‘Self

Test Frame’ on the ring itself.

For AS/400, use the Verify Print (VFYPRT) command to obtain the printer type and

send a test print. The AS/400 uses ERAPs to log errors.

Applications (IPDS)

The 3130 prints text data referred to as Coded Information, image data referred to

as Non-Coded Information, and GDDM raster graphics. You can print all of these

at any location on the printed page and in any combination. Printing the mixture or

combination of data at any printed page location is called all points addressable or

APA printing.

Token Ring Network Attachment

For details on SNA, TCP/IP, or NetWare attachment, see IBM InfoPrint 60; 3130,

3160, and 3935 Advanced Function Printer: Attachment Configuration Handbook.

The 3130 connects to a host Token-Ring through the IBM Token-Ring cabling. It

uses the Auto Token-Ring LANStreamer Adapter which is installed in the AFCCU.

The adapter and an 8-foot long external cable are provided when this feature is

ordered. The external cable is connected to an IBM 8228 Token-Ring Multistation

Access Unit or an IBM 8230 Token-Ring Network Controller Access Unit, which is

connected as follows:

Ÿ Directly to a PS/2, AS/400, or RISC System/6000 CPU

Ÿ To a 3172, 3174, 3720, 3725, or 3745, which in turn is connected directly to a

ES/4381, 308X, ES/3090, or ES/9000 CPU

Appendix B. Software and Hardware Requirements 65

The control unit can attach to either a 4Mbps or 16Mbps Token-Ring Local Area

Network.

The attachment adheres to the IBM Token-Ring Network OEMI. The following

documents, together, compose the IBM Token-Ring Network Other Equipment

Manufacture Interface:

Ÿ IBM Cabling System Technical Interface Specification, GA27-3773

Ÿ IBM Local Area Network Technical Reference, SC30-3383

Ÿ IBM Token-Ring Area Network Architecture Reference, SC30-3374

Ÿ Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection, IEEE Std 802.3-1985

Ÿ Token-Ring Access Method and Physical Layer Specification, IEEE Standard

802.5-1989

The 3130 can be a maximum distance of 100 meters from the 8228 Multistation

Access Unit or 8230 Controlled Access Unit. For more information, refer to the

8228 and 8230 Product Publications. For cable attachment options from the 8228

or 8230 to the host system CPU, refer to the specific CPU cabling information.

Ethernet Network Attachment

For details on TCP/IP or NetWare attachment, see IBM InfoPrint 60; 3130, 3160,

and 3935 Advanced Function Printer: Attachment Configuration Handbook.

The 3130 offers one of three Ethernet attachment types as an optional feature:

10Base-T (Twisted Pair)

The 3130 can attach to standard Twisted Pair (10BaseT) cable. The feature

attachment includes the type 10BaseT transceiver and the transceiver cable used

to connect the transceiver to the printer. RJ45 unshielded twisted pair cable (which

must meet IEEE 802.3 requirements) is required to attach the 10BaseT transceiver

to the Ethernet Twisted Pair Network. A wrap plug is included with the feature for

diagnostic purposes.

Connection can be either directly to a RISC System/6000 or to a 8250 or 8260

Twisted Pair Hub (which connects to a RISC System/6000 or a PS/2).

10Base2 (Thin Coaxial)

The 3130 can attach to standard Thin type 10Base2 Ethernet coaxial cable. The

attachment includes the type 10Base2 transceiver and the transceiver cable used

to connect the transceiver to the printer. The transceiver attaches to a standard

Thin Ethernet Network. A wrap plug is included with the feature for diagnostic

purposes.

Connection is made directly to a RISC System/6000, PS/2, or AS/400.

10Base5 (Thick Coaxial)

The 3130 can attach to standard Thick type 10Base5 Ethernet coaxial cable. A

type 10Base5 cable is required to connect the D-connector on the printer to the

10Base5 network. A wrap plug is included with the feature for diagnostic purposes.

Connection is made directly to a RISC System/6000, PS/2, or AS/400.
