| End-to-end print management. |
- Comprehensive resource management and page-level error
recovery can reduce the time operators spend setting up and managing
print jobs.

metacode jobs are converted to AFP™, printing is managed by IBM Print
Services Facility™ (PSF™) on z/OS®.
|
| Single-source resource management for multiple printers. |
- Convert Xerox print resources, including forms, fonts, logos and images, into AFP while you retain copies of the originals.
- Store
formatting information from Xerox non-print resources, such as Job
Descriptor Entries (JDE) and Page Descriptor Entries (PDE), to process
and format jobs correctly.
- Store resources centrally on z/OS to
save time associated with coordinating the correct version of each
resource on each printer.
|
| Integrated accounting. |
With accounting integrated with the host system, you can centrally manage record keeping and simplify chargeback processing. |
| Standardization on a single application data stream in a multivendor environment. |
Boost productivity and leverage your z/OS investment. Combine
Infoprint® XT Extender with Infoprint Server and other z/OS offerings,
and you can accept input in many data streams and formats, and convert
datastreams to and from AFP. Then, direct output to a wide variety of
printers, softcopy storage and presentation solutions. |
| Integration with IBM's Content Manager on OnDemand. |
