4635 LPS OVERVIEW
5.25-inch floppy disk drive
The 5.25-inch floppy disk drive is another means of downloading
or backing up files, such as fonts, to the 4635 system disk.
Expanded disk memory
The 4635 has as a standard feature one 651 MB unformatted
system disk, and can support up to three additional 651 MB
unformatted system disks.
Expanded bitmap memory
The 4635 has as a standard feature 32 Mbits of bitmap memory
that supports font and graphics. The bitmap memory can be
expanded to 256 Mbits.
Bar code reader
The bar code reader adds a set of features that allow processing
of bar code data streams. A cross-checking mechanism allows
the 4635 to ensure that any bar code sheets printed have been
accounted for by each component of the software.
Raster image processor
Raster image processor (RIP) performs vector to raster conversion
in support of the Interpress 3.0 Publication Set. It provides
multiple forms capability for any given page and permits printing
of text and image files which would otherwise be unprintable or
incomplete because of complexity. RIP allows you to use two
forms per page and more than 16 graphics on a page for
Interpress applications.
LPS connection
The 4635 may be ordered with the following optional
connections:
Online interface The online channel interface receives input directly from the host
system. All IBM systems which support the channel-attached
3811/3211 or 4245 interface are supported. Non-IBM systems
are supported through a variety of connections such as DDI.
(Refer to the DDI description below.)
Offline interface The offline interface is an excellent alternative or addition to an
online operation. It supports 9-track (1600/6250 bpi) and 18-
