I-O RPCCX ASCII to Coax Printer Interface

RPC CX Print Box
	The RPC CX PRINT BOX allows an IBM Coax SCS System printer to connect to an ASCII based host via the parallel port
The I-O Print Box RPC protects your investment in IBM system printers when migrating to LAN,UNIX, or other ASCII environments. The reverse protocol converter interfaces between the attached twinax or coax IBM (or compatible) system printer and a LAN, RISC/6000, or other ASCII-based host system. The I-O Print Box RPC supports Epson FX or IBM Proprinter data streams at over 1,500 lines per minute (LPM). The integrated LCD front panel allows user-friendly customization, as well as status monitoring. The I-O Print Box RPC also offers a unique diagnostics port for quick problem resolution and configuration review using the additional ASCII printer port. Introduce your system printer to the I-O Print Box RPC. Together, they can handle heavy-duty print jobs at a fraction of the cost of a new printer. The I-O Print Box RPC is also a popular test device for system managers. It allows them to test their twinax or Coax printers, without involving the Host. Only the print Box and an ASCII source (such as a laptop computer) is needed.
Specifications: Attaches any IBM SCS Twinax Printer, such as the 4234, 4224, 4214, 5256, 5224/25/56, 5219 printers. Attaches any IBM Coax Printer, such as the 4224, 4214, and 3287/68 printers. Supports IBM Proprinter and EPSON data streams Multiple Applications Supports Large ASCII Print Jobs

Features	Benefits
IBM Compatibility	Seamless connectivity to attached IBM (or compatible) system printers. The I-O Print Box RPC understands the limitations of your IBM printer and automatically ignores ASCII commands which are not supported by an IBM printer.
Integrated LCD Front Panel	Easy configuration and status monitoring through the integrated LCD front panel.
IBM Proprinter or Epson FX Data Streams	Supports the two most popular ASCII printer data streams for worry-free printing from the ASCII host
Fast Print Speeds	Supports print speeds of over 1,500 lines per minute (LPM) for full utilization of the attached system printer.
Parallel or Serial Connectors	Convenient attachment of ASCII hosts through standard parallel or serial cables.
Unique Diagnostics Port	Quick problem resolution, troubleshooting, and configuration review using the additional ASCII printer port.
Popular Test Device	The I-O Print Box RPC is also a popular test device for system managers. It allows them to test their twinax or Coax printers, without involving the Host. Only the print Box and an ASCII source (such as a laptop computer) is needed.
