2. IBM hammer printers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_hammer_printers

   The IBM 4245 is a high-speed impact printer that uses an engraved band. IBM proposed it as a replacement for the 1403, 3203 and the 3211/3811. As an example the Montana Department of Administration bought three 4245s (a model 12 and two model 20s) in October 1985 to replace two IBM 1403s and a 3211/3811. [21] [22] There are four consumable items:

3. Honeywell Page Printing System - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honeywell_Page_Printing_System

   The Honeywell Page Printing System (PPS) announced in 1974, is notable because it was the first commercially successful high speed non-impact printer. [1] It could produce output at up to 18,000 lines per minute, [2] where the earlier Xerox 1200 (the first commercially available electro-static printer) ran at 4000 lines per minute [3] and the contemporary IBM 3211 (which was an impact printer ...

4. IBM Machine Code Printer Control Characters - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Machine_Code_Printer...

   IBM defined two sets of printer commands, and therefore two sets of printer control characters are available. The first set of commands did not send any data to be printed to the printer but only a paper movement instruction. These are called immediate commands. The second set of commands send data to be printed on the current line plus a paper ...

5. ASA carriage control characters - Wikipedia

   Later printers such as the IBM 3211 and IBM 4248 did away with the physical carriage control tape and used an electronic Forms Control Buffer (FCB) instead. ASA carriage control characters are still used for printer output from mainframe applications and software today.

6. IBM Intelligent Printer Data Stream - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Intelligent_Printer...

   The output of these independent applications is merged at the printer to create an integrated mixed data page." [2] The IPDS architecture allows for both spooled data and print job management to flow bidirectionally between the print server (or print driver) and the Printer Controller. Examples of print job management controls are: Printer ...

7. Support programs for OS/360 and successors - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Support_programs_for_OS/...

   IBM's original OS/360 sort/merge program, 360S-SM-023, program name IERRCO00 (alias SORT), supported only IBM's first-generation direct-access storage devices (DASD) [d] and tapes (2400). Support for second-generation disk drives was provided by IBM program products such as 5734-SM1 and the later 5740-SM1 ( DFSORT , alias ICEMAN, also SORT).

8. Personal Printer Data Stream - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_Printer_Data_Stream

   Personal Printer Data Stream is a general name for a family of page description language used by IBM printers, which includes all Proprinter, Quietwriter, Quickwriter, LaserPrinter 4019, and LaserPrinter 4029 commands. PPDS was introduced to control printers in 1981 with the launch of IBM Graphics Printer 5152.

9. Advanced Function Presentation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Function_Presentation

   This is the bi-directional protocol used between the host server and the printer. It is used to send the page-level data to the printer and to signal errors and accounting information back to the server. The IPDS protocol also allows the server to query a printer's available resources (e.g. available memory, fonts, input trays, etc.).
