SUPPLEMENTAL UTILITIES
______________________
The Supplemental Utilities for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029
Series are host personal computer utilities with menu-
driven installation. The following information describes
the contents of the Supplemental Utilities package.
UTILITIES
_________
The Supplemental Utilities package includes:
o INSTALLATION UTILITY that you use to install DOS or
OS/2 utilities.
o LASERDRIVER UTILITY that provides a method for
quickly and easily changing the settings on the
printer. Menu-driven screens let you select and send
commands to:
- Choose orientation
- Download bitmapped and scalable fonts
- Select fonts
- Select line spacing
- Select paper source and size
- Specify user default settings
- Select emulations/modes
- IBM Personal Printer Data Stream (IBM PPDS)
mode
- PCL4 emulation or PCL5 emulation, if
installed, which supports Hewlett-Packard**
(HP**) LaserJet** Printer Command Language
(PCL)
- Plotter mode, which supports Hewlett-Packard
Graphics Language (HP GL) and IBM Graphics
Language (IBM GL)
- PostScript** mode, if installed
o DOS AND OS/2 AUTOMATIC EMULATION/MODE SWITCHING (AES)
UTILITY that allows your printer to operate automat-
ically as more than one printer, managing up to four
emulations/modes. The emulations/modes are:
- IBM PPDS mode
- PCL4 emulation or PCL5 emulation, if installed
- Plotter mode
- PostScript mode, if installed
With AES, you can change installed emulations/modes
automatically from your application instead of from
the printer operator panel. If you plan to use more
than one emulation/mode, install the AES utility.
Supplemental Utilities 1-1
IMPORTANT: A README.TXT file is included to provide
you with additional information about AES and the
printer. It also lists helpful hints and some appli-
cation compatibility considerations.
The ports you assign to the different
emulations/modes are not the physical ports on your
work station. The names, such as LPT1 and LPT2, are
virtual ports when using AES. Any one of the
emulations/modes on these virtual ports is directed
to the physical port on your host, such as LPT1 or
COM1, by the AES utility.
o RESOURCE MANAGER UTILITY that efficiently manages
printer memory by automatically downloading fonts and
macros as required by a PPDS job data stream.
Resource Manager (RM) is an OS/2-only utility and is
designed to operate with OS/2 Versions Standard
Edition (SE) 1.3, Extended Edition (EE) 1.3, or
higher software.
ADDITIONAL ITEMS
________________
The additional items on the diskette that are not
included in the installation menus are:
LPTX.SYS
This is an OS/2 device driver that can be used with
the AES utility for an OS/2 environment only. It can
be installed when AES is installed depending on your
system configuration and your requirements. When the
LPTX.SYS program is used with OS/2 Version 1.3 or
higher software, it allows you to define four addi-
tional LPTx ports (LPT4 - LPT7) for use by AES beyond
the standard set of three LPTx ports (LPT1 - LPT3).
For more information, see "Installing AES on an OS/2
Work Station" on page 3-9 and "Using AES to Control
Multiple Printers" on page 6-5.
1-2 Supplemental Utilities for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series
MODE SWITCHING JOB SEPARATOR FILES FOR AN IBM LAN OR
MICROSOFT** LAN
These files switch modes and print a separator page
between each print job. Use these job separators if
you install the printer on an IBM PC or OS/2 LAN when
AES is not installed. The files are named
4029PPDS.SEP, 4029PS.SEP, 4029PCL.SEP, 4029GL.SEP,
and 4029B.SEP. See "Mode Switching on a Local Area
Network" on page 4-1 for information on using these
files on a LAN.
IBM LASERPRINTER 4029 PRINTER TABLES FOR ADVANCED
INTERACTIVE EXECUTIVE (AIX*) OPERATING SYSTEM
The 4029 AIX printer tables are included so you can
switch between printer emulations/modes when attached
to an IBM RISC System/6000. An AIX text file, called
AIX_READ.ME, on the Supplemental Utilities diskette
provides more information. The files are in the
/AIX/ directory on the Supplemental Utilities
diskette.
PRINT DEFINITION FILE (PDF) FOR A NOVELL LAN
One PDF file is included so you can switch between
emulations/modes on your LAN printer without using
the AES utility. Also provided in the PDF file are
common setup functions for the printer. The file is
4029.PDF. Use your Novell PRINTDEF utility to import
this file. See your Novell manuals for instructions
on how to use PRINTDEF.
Also included in the Supplemental Utilities package are
SCREEN FONTS that match 17 scalable fonts standard in the
IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series.

tures are used by LaserDriver.
LaserDriver Utility 2-3
SWITCHING EMULATIONS/MODES, SELECTING TEMPORARY SETTINGS, AND
DOWNLOADING FONTS
The first four options on the LaserDriver Main Menu cor-
respond to the four emulations/modes supported by the
printer. By selecting any of these options, a menu is
displayed with supported commands and functions for that
emulation/mode. Selecting these commands and functions
allows you to change the emulation/mode, change the tem-
porary settings, or download fonts.
DEFAULT SETTINGS
The fifth option on the LaserDriver Main Menu allows you
to specify default settings for the printer. Default
settings are those settings that are active when the
printer is turned on or reset. If you select this
option, the User Default Setup menu is displayed.
PRINTER PORT
If you select the last option available on the
LaserDriver Main Menu, the Select Printer Port menu is
displayed. This menu lets you specify the printer port
for LaserDriver output.
LASERDRIVER GUIDELINES
1. The AES utility sends a Set Initial Conditions (SIC)
command to select the emulation/mode before each
print job. The SIC command resets any temporary set-
tings that may have been changed by the LaserDriver
utility.
2. If you want to use the LaserDriver utility when the
AES utility is installed, select "AES_PORT" from the
Printer Port menu. This prevents the AES utility
from interfering with the LaserDriver commands.
3. Many applications precede all print jobs with a Reset
command that can override the settings you have
selected through the LaserDriver utility.
2-4 Supplemental Utilities for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series
AUTOMATIC EMULATION/MODE SWITCHING UTILITY
__________________________________________
This chapter describes Automatic Emulation/Mode Switching
(AES) utility installation and use.
DESCRIPTION OF THE AUTOMATIC EMULATION/MODE UTILITY
___________________________________________________
The AES utility supplied with the Supplemental Utilities
lets you select any of the following available
emulations/modes through your printer applications.
o IBM PPDS mode
o PCL4 emulation or PCL5 emulation, if installed
o Plotter mode
o PostScript mode, if installed
You should install AES if you want to print in more than
one emulation/mode. AES can be installed with DOS,
Microsoft Windows**, or OS/2 environments. With AES
installed, your work station print screen function always
switches to IBM PPDS mode when any emulation/mode assign-
ment is given to LPT1 during AES installation.
AES is useful on a LAN or in a printer sharing environ-
ment. AES can be installed on an IBM PC LAN or OS/2 LAN
file server. In a LAN or printer sharing environment,
you can have several users with different needs producing
output from a variety of applications.
AES is also useful in a non-shared printer environment in
which you have different applications that use different
emulations/modes.
Automatic Emulation/Mode Switching Utility 3-1
HOW AES WORKS
_____________
AES allows the printer to operate automatically as more
than one printer by allowing you to assign virtual commu-
nication port names to each of the four emulations/modes
of the printer. You can then send print jobs in any of
the emulations to the printer by specifying the port name
that identifies the emulation/mode of your choice.
For example, if you want to print a spreadsheet using
PCL4 emulation or PCL5 emulation, send the print job to
the virtual LPT communications port you assigned to
HP-PCL emulation during the AES installation. You must
select the appropriate printer drivers and printer port
within your application software.
When using AES, your printer can be connected to the work
station with a serial or a parallel interface. The AES
utility creates a header for your print job and then
sends the job to the printer. The header informs the
printer which emulation/mode is needed to print your job.
This information is in the EMMDSW.CFG file in the AES
subdirectory for DOS installation and in the LEXAES.CFG
file for OS/2 installation.
To understand how virtual printer ports work with AES,
consider the following. Your word processing application
outputs data for IBM PPDS mode, PCL4 emulation or PCL5
emulation, Plotter mode, and PostScript mode. When
installing AES, you set LPT1 as IBM PPDS mode, LPT2 as
HP-PCL emulation, LPT3 as PostScript mode, and LPT4 as
Plotter mode. When the application prompts you for the
printer port assigned to output, specify LPT1, LPT2,
LPT3, or LPT4, depending on the emulation/mode used by
the application.
3-2 Supplemental Utilities for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series
The AES installation utility guides you through the
selection of virtual printer port names and
emulations/modes.
When AES installation is completed, the virtual ports you
assigned are available only through AES. For example, if
your printer is physically connected to LPT1 and you
assign virtual port LPT1 to PostScript mode and virtual
port LPT2 to IBM PPDS mode, then you cannot send data to
another printer physically connected to LPT2. The data
sent to LPT2 is sent to physical port LPT1 with the
proper information for IBM PPDS mode. If you want to use
LPT2 with another printer, you must specify NONE for that
virtual port during AES installation. If this is done,
AES does not affect any printer data sent to physical
port LPT2.
Automatic Emulation/Mode Switching Utility 3-3
NOTES:
1. If additional LPT ports are not added during the
installation of AES for OS/2, AES has only three
virtual LPT ports for printer emulations/modes
(LPT1-LPT3).
2. The ports you assign to the different
emulations/modes are not the physical ports on your
work station. The names, such as LPT1 and LPT2, are
virtual ports when using AES. Any one of the
emulations/modes on these virtual ports is directed
to the physical port on your host, such as LPT1 or
COM1, by the AES utility.
3. In a Microsoft Windows environment, the AES virtual
port names correspond to the same LPT names, but with
an .AES file extension. For example, if you assigned
LPT2 to an emulation/mode during AES installation, it
corresponds to LPT2.AES in the Microsoft Windows
environment.
INSTALLING AES ON A DOS WORK STATION
____________________________________
To install and start the utilities:
1. Insert the Supplemental Utilities diskette in a

PLACING AES INTO DOS' UPPER MEMORY w/DOS VERSION 5.0
____________________________________________________
To place the AES driver and the Terminate and Stay Resi-
dent (TSR) portion of AES into DOS Upper memory of DOS
Version 5.0, complete the following:
1. Alter the CONFIG.SYS file so it has the following
lines in the same order as shown:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE NOEMS
DOS=HIGH,UMB
...
DEVICEHIGH=C:\AES\EMMDSW...
To create the DEVICEHIGH line, substitute DEVICEHIGH
for DEVICE in the line created by AES.
NOTE: This places the device driver into the Upper
DSO Memory.
2. Update the line added to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file by the
AES installation to read:
LOADHIGH C:\AES\EMMDSW...
To change the line, insert LOADHIGH at the beginning
of the line that AES created.
NOTE: This places the TSR into upper memory.
3. Restart your computer.
To verify that the changes occurred, enter the command
"MEM /CLASSIFY" . The listing from this command displays
the location of programs in conventional and extended
memory. The AES TSR, which is named EMMDSW, and the AES
device driver, which is named EMMDSWP or EMMDSWS, are
displayed in the upper memory section.
When you type "EMMDSW" to query the AES settings or
"EMMDSW /R" to temporarily remove AES, you must prefix
the command with LH or LOADHIGH.
If AES is reinstalled, the two lines created by the AES
installation must be modified again.

INSTALLING AES ON AN OS/2 WORK STATION
______________________________________
To install and start the utilities:
1. Insert the Supplemental Utilities diskette in a
diskette drive and make that drive active.
2. Type "INSTALL" at the prompt.
3. Follow the instructions on the screen to load the
utility.
4. When the installation is complete, remove the
diskette.
If you install AES, the installation utility may update
the STARTUP.CMD, CONFIG.SYS, OS2.INI, and OS2SYS.INI
files. An AES directory (\OS2\AES) is created.
Before these files are modified, backups of these files
are created by the installation utility with an .AES file
extension.
NOTE: During the installation process a screen is dis-
played to ask you if you need additional LPT ports for
use with AES. If you request additional ports, you are
prompted to turn the computer off and then restart the
computer after the installation process is completed.
SETTING UP OS/2 PRINT MANAGER MANUALLY
If you select not to have the OS/2 AES installation
utility automatically set the printer names and printer
queues, you need to set these Print Manager items.
As with the DOS AES utility, whether the printer is
attached by a parallel port or serial port, use the LPTx
names to identify emulations/modes to AES. Therefore, to
set Print Manager, set three printer names for three
printer queues. Each printer queue is then associated
with one printer name and each printer name is associated
with one LPTx port. Each LPTx port name is associated
with a printer emulation/mode during the OS/2 AES instal-
lation process.
For example:
1. Add three new printer queues.
2. Call the queue names PPDSQ, PCLQ, and PSQ.
3. Add three new printer names: PPDSPrinter, PCLPrinter,
and PSPrinter.
Automatic Emulation/Mode Switching Utility 3-9
4. Assign LPT1 as the port for the PPDSPrinter, LPT2 as
the port for the PCLPrinter, and LPT3 as the port for
the PSPrinter. These assignments correspond to the
default selections if you have the PostScript option
for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series installed.
These assignments are easily changed during the AES
installation process. You also need to select the queue
for these printer names (PPDSQ for PPDSPrinter and so
on).
When you complete these instructions, Print Manager dis-
plays the new print queues. If you have any other print
queues on the list, you may delete them or target their
printers to the NONE port, so that you do not get con-
fusing results.
If you have an existing queue that transmitted data to
your LPT1 port before AES was installed, that queue acts
exactly as PPDSQ in the preceding example with AES
installed. That is, a job sent to that queue is prefaced
with a SIC command and is sent to your printer on the
physical port you specified when you installed AES.
With these three new queues and printer names installed,
the printer is ready to print.

AES AND SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS
_____________________________
You can select the baud rates for DOS and OS/2 serial AES
drivers from the installation utilities. The other
serial parameters, such as parity, data bits, and stop
bits, can be changed as described below:
DOS Change the DOS serial parameters by editing the
CONFIG.SYS file where the EMMDSWS.SYS entry
exists. /C is the serial communications param-
eter that defines baud, parity, and so on in
the same format as the MODE command. You may
change this parameter instead of reinstalling
AES just to change the baud setting. You must
restart the host computer after making these
changes.
AES supports the following baud rates: 1200,
2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, and 38400.
OS/2 Use the OS/2 Control Panel to change the OS/2
serial parameters. After changing any serial
parameters, be sure to restart AES with the
STARTAES.CMD file.
For DOS and OS/2 AES setups, the default settings are:
BAUD 9600
PARITY None
DATA BITS 8
STOP BITS 1
PROTOCOL DTR

______________________________________
This chapter explains how to install AES on the following
LAN servers with the printer:
o IBM PC LAN
o IBM OS/2 LAN
o Microsoft LAN Manager
o Novell NetWare**
o Banyan**/VINES**
Using AES and your printer on a LAN lets you select up to
four emulations/modes in the printer. With AES installed
on your LAN, you never have to change emulations/modes
from the printer operator panel.
SETTING UP YOUR PRINTER AND AES ON AN IBM LAN SERVER
____________________________________________________
To set up and install your printer on an IBM PC LAN or
OS/2 LAN:
1. Set up your LAN by following the standard LAN instal-
lation procedures. Refer to your LAN manuals for
more information.
2. Install the AES driver on the LAN server.
During AES installation, you can assign the AES
emulations/modes to LPT printer ports. Assign the
three emulations/modes you plan to use most often to
the available LPT ports and record the assignments
for later reference.
For DOS, the EMMDSW.CFG file created by the AES
utility contains the mapping of the virtual LPT names
to the printer emulations/modes. For an OS/2 envi-
ronment, the configuration file is LEXAES.CFG.
Mode Switching on a Local Area Network 4-1
You can assign any three emulations/modes to the
available LPT ports.
The AES utility creates a header for your print job
and then sends the job to the printer on the LAN.
The header indicates to your printer the proper
emulation/mode needed to print your job.
NOTE: If you do not install AES on your file server,
you can switch modes by using the mode switching job
separator files on the diskette. You must use these
job separator pages in non-binary mode communication
only.
3. Refer to the following topics in this chapter to con-
tinue installing your printer on an IBM LAN or Micro-
soft LAN:
o "Installing Your Printer on an IBM PC LAN Server"
as follows
o "Installing AES on an OS/2 or Microsoft LAN
Server" on page 4-6
INSTALLING YOUR PRINTER ON AN IBM PC LAN SERVER
To install your printer on an IBM PC LAN:
1. Set up your printer on the LAN by following the pro-
cedure from "Setting Up Your Printer and AES on an
IBM LAN Server" on page 4-1.
NOTE: If AES is installed on the file server, you
may want to use the job separator files that were
supplied on the Supplemental Utilities diskette, the
mode switch data at the beginning of each separator
page must be deleted. Make backup copies of these
files before modifying them, in case you need them
for future use.
2. Copy the job separator files on the Supplemental
Utilities diskette to the AES driver subdirectory.
4-2 Supplemental Utilities for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series
Use the following command:
copy A:\*.sep C:\aes
The job separator files let the printer:
o Switch emulations/modes
o Print a page at the beginning and end of each
print job
o Identify the emulation/mode for each print job
The following job separator files are located on the
diskette:
4029PPDS.SEP IBM PPDS mode
4029PS.SEP PostScript mode
4029PCL.SEP PCL4 emulation or PCL5 emulation
4029GL.SEP Plotter mode
4029B.SEP Install this file only if you want a
blank job separator page to print.
Make sure the printer has Blank
Pages set to print.
3. Change the print server AUTOEXEC.BAT file and the
AUTOEXEC.BAT file for each of the systems and work
stations sharing the printer. See "Changing the IBM
PC LAN AUTOEXEC.BAT File" for more information.
4. On the printer requester systems, select printer
drivers for the emulation/mode you assigned during
the AES installation. If the requester uses applica-
tion software, perform the application instructions
for selecting printer drivers and printing jobs.
If the requester does not use an application to print
jobs, use the Net Print command. For example, if you
assigned PostScript mode to LPT2 during the AES
installation, type the following command:
net print filename.extension LPT2
When you use the Net Print command, make sure you
send your jobs to the LPT ports that you assigned to
them during the AES installation.
CHANGING THE IBM PC LAN AUTOEXEC.BAT FILE
If you are installing your printer on an IBM PC LAN, you
must change the print server AUTOEXEC.BAT file and the
AUTOEXEC.BAT file for each work station sharing the
printer. Changing the AUTOEXEC.BAT file lets you assign
your parallel interface printer port names and add job
separators.
Mode Switching on a Local Area Network 4-3
Changing the Print Server AUTOEXEC.BAT File
Add the following information to the print server
AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
net start srv servername
net share alias=LPT1
net share alias=LPT2
net share alias=LPT3
net separator LPT1: c:\aes\4029xsep
net separator LPT2: c:\aes\4029xsep
net separator LPT3: c:\aes\4029xsep
net separator LPT4: c:\aes\4029xsep
servername
A name given to the print server when you installed
the server software.
alias
A unique name by which the printer emulations/modes
are known in the LAN domain. For example, if you
assigned LPT1 to IBM PPDS mode during the AES
driver installation, you would choose a unique name
that identifies LPT1 in the domain as the IBM PPDS
mode printer.
x
The name of the job separator file corresponding to
the emulation/mode you selected during the AES
driver installation. See page 4-3 for the names of
the job separator files.
For example, if you assigned LPT1 to IBM PPDS mode with
an alias of aespx, LPT2 to PostScript mode with an alias
of aesps, and LPT3 to PCL4 emulation or PCL5 emulation
with an alias of aeshp, your modified server AUTOEXEC.BAT
file might look like the following:
net start srv servername
net share aespx=LPT1
net share aesps=LPT2
net share aeshp=LPT3
net separator LPT1: c:\aes\4029ppds.sep
net separator LPT2: c:\aes\4029ps.sep
net separator LPT3: c:\aes\4029pcl.sep
4-4 Supplemental Utilities for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series
NOTES:
1. Verify that the separator pages match the
emulations/modes you assigned to each LPT port when
you installed the AES utility. Make sure you have
selected the blank pages printer default setting, do
not print.
2. If you selected IBM PPDS mode for any LPT port,
verify that the work station Print Screen function
works correctly.
3. You must use one of the job separator files from the
Supplemental Utilities diskette. If you do not want
a separator page to print, use the Net Separator
command and specify "4029b.sep."
4. On an IBM PC LAN, you can assign only three parallel
interface ports. This means that only three
emulations/modes can be assigned at one time. You
should decide which emulations/modes you want to use
most often and assign them to the available LPT ports
during the AES driver installation.
Changing the Work Station AUTOEXEC.BAT File
To change your work station AUTOEXEC.BAT file, add the
following information to each work station AUTOEXEC.BAT
file sharing the network:
net start rdr workstationname
net use LPT1: \\servername\alias
net use LPT2: \\servername\alias
net use LPT3: \\servername\alias
For example, if you installed your printer on a server
named aeslan and the printer aliases were aespx, aesps,
and aeshp, your modified work station AUTOEXEC.BAT file
would look like the following:
net start rdr workstationname
net use LPT1: \\aeslan\aespx
net use LPT2: \\aeslan\aesps
net use LPT3: \\aeslan\aeshp

INSTALLING AES ON AN OS/2 OR MICROSOFT LAN SERVER
_________________________________________________
If you are installing one printer on an OS/2 LAN server:
1. Set up your LAN by following the procedure from
"Setting Up Your Printer and AES on an IBM LAN
Server" on page 4-1.
2. After installing the AES driver, exit the installa-
tion utility. The AES icon is displayed at the
bottom of your screen.
3. Log on to the LAN server as an administrator.
4. Create new printer aliases for the three
emulations/modes you assigned to the LPT ports during
the AES driver installation. An alias is the name by
which a printer emulation/mode is known in the LAN
domain.
For example, if you assigned LPT1 to IBM PPDS mode
during the AES driver installation, you would choose
a unique name that identifies LPT1 in the domain as
the IBM PPDS mode printer.
The following example shows you one way of creating a
printer alias. It uses aespx as the alias:
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| |
| Alias {AESPX} |
| Description {LPT1Q ON SERVER A} |
| Server name {A} |
| Spooler queue {LPT1Q} |
| |
| Maximum number of users {} |
| |
| When shared {At server startup} |
| {By administrator action} |
| |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+

USING EMULATION/MODE SWITCHING SEPARATOR PAGES ON AN OS/2
__________________________________________________________
OR MICROSOFT LAN
________________
Automatic emulation/mode switching can be accomplished
without having AES installed by using the emulation/mode
switching separator pages included on the Supplemental
Utilities diskette. This feature allows up to six
printers (three parallel and three serial) with automatic
emulation/mode switching to be attached to one server.
This allows great flexibility in the configuration of the
server and individual work stations.
It is possible to run AES on one printer and use the
emulation/mode switching separator pages on other
printers. However, this limits the flexibility of the
server and is more cumbersome to manage, so it is not
recommended.
To install the emulation/mode switching separator pages
on the server:
1. Start the LAN server.
2. Install all desired print drivers according to Print
Manager documentation.
3. Create the "C:\OS2\AES" subdirectory, and copy all
separator page files (""*.sep"") from the Supple-
mental Utilities diskette to "C:\OS2\AES".
4. Start Print Manager and select the "Setup","
Printers", and" Add" options. Add one printer name
for each printer on which you want to install
emulation/mode switching. For each printer, assign
the appropriate physical port and select the drivers
(PPDS, PCL4 or PCL5, GL, or PS) to use with that
printer.
5. Assign print queues on the server. These can be set
up in a variety of configurations. Two suggestions
are given below, but a combination of the two config-
urations might be more useful under some conditions.
a. Set up one queue for each driver that was
installed for each printer. For example, if two
printers are installed, and all four
emulations/modes are selected for each printer,
then eight queues are installed. This method is
used to limit the number of users allowed access
to certain printers.
Mode Switching on a Local Area Network 4-7
Start Print Manager and select the "Setup","
Queues", and "Add" options. Select one printer
and one driver for each queue. In the
"Separator" field of the Add Queue menu, type the
path and file name for the correct separator
page. These are listed below:
PPDS Separator "C:\OS2\AES\4029PPDS.SEP"
PCL Separator "C:\OS2\AES\4029PCL.SEP"
GL Separator "C:\OS2\AES\4029GL.SEP"
PS Separator "C:\OS2\AES\4029PS.SEP"
Repeat the process of adding queues until each
driver of each printer is represented by a queue.
b. Set up one queue for each emulation/mode that is
supported. This means that one queue can use up
to six emulation/mode switching printers. For
example, if six identically configured printers
are installed, and each printer is capable of all
four emulations/modes, then only four queues are
installed. This setup is usually the most effi-
cient if all printers have the same configura-
tion.
Start Print Manager and select the "Setup","
Queues", and" Add" options. Select every printer
that uses IBM PPDS mode. In the "Separator"
field of the Add Queue menu, type in the path and
file name for the correct separator page. These
are listed in 5a on page 4-7. Repeat the process
of adding queues for PCL4 or PCL5, Plotter, and
PostScript emulations/modes if supported and
desired.
NOTE: The separator page field is only visible
when the server has been started. The actual
separator pages, once installed, are active until
deleted.
6. Assign network aliases to the new printer queue and
create an access profile for each alias. This is
necessary for resource sharing.
7. Assign virtual ports (if desired) to each queue up to
a maximum of nine virtual ports. Virtual ports
should be assigned only to LPT ports not physically
attached to a printer. If a user is logged on to the
actual file server machine, then OS/2 applications
such as File Manager allow that user to select a
queue for printing. Virtual ports are useful in OS/2
and DOS windows on the server mainly for copying
files to virtual ports. This can also be accom-
plished by copying the file to a net name for that
queue.
4-8 Supplemental Utilities for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series
SETTING UP AN OS/2 LAN REQUESTER
Do not install AES on your LAN requester. Install AES
only on the LAN server.
Each work station can use up to nine of the network
queues defined on the server by assigning a virtual port
to each queue. This is done by using one of the fol-
lowing methods:
1. The system administrator updates the work station
user's default logon assignments.
2. The user changes the assignments after logging on to
the server.
All of the selected network queues should appear on the
Print Manager window of the work station once it is
restarted.
WARNING: VIRTUAL PORTS TAKE PRIORITY OVER PHYSICAL
PORTS. IF A PRINTER IS PHYSICALLY ATTACHED TO THE WORK
STATION, IT COULD BE DISABLED BY ASSIGNING A VIRTUAL PORT
WITH THE SAME LABEL AS THE PHYSICAL PORT.
To have access to the network queues during the execution
or operation of OS/2 applications such as File Manager,
it is necessary to create dummy local printers and local
queues. This limits the accessible network queues to
three (LPT1-LPT3) on each work station for many OS/2
applications. The chosen queues must be assigned virtual
ports in the given range to proceed with installation.
To create dummy local printers and local queues:
1. Make sure all desired printer drivers are installed
on the work station.
2. Start Print Manager and select the "Setup","
Printers", and "Add" options. Add one printer name
for each desired network queue (up to a maximum of
3). Select the same printer driver that the corre-
sponding network queue uses and select virtual ports
(LPT1-LPT3) that are to be associated with that
queue.
3. Start Print Manager and select the "Setup"," Queues",
and" Add" options. Create one queue for each dummy
printer. Do not specify any separator pages.
When the work station is restarted, the new queues and
all assigned network queues are displayed in the Print
Manager window.
It may be necessary to restart the server and any work
stations that are logged on to that server for the new
configuration to start.

SWITCHING EMULATIONS/MODES ON A NOVELL LAN
__________________________________________
SWITCHING EMULATIONS/MODES WITHOUT USING AES
The NOVELL.PDF file contains several modes and functions
that are helpful in using the emulation/mode switching
capabilities of the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series.
Use the NOVELL PRINTDEF utility to import the IBM4029.PDF
file. When imported, the modes and functions defined in
that file are used with the PRINTCON utility that is
shipped with Novell NetWare. Use PRINTCON to set job
classes that can be used with CAPTURE or NPRINT.
Some of the functions contained in the IBM4029.PDF file
are emulation/mode switch commands that are placed at the
beginning and end of your print job by the NetWare appli-
cation.
WARNING: IF YOU USE THE NOVELL PDF FILE TO SWITCH
EMULATIONS/MODES, DO NOT USE BINARY MODE COMMUNICATION ON
YOUR NOVELL SYSTEM. THE PDF FILE FUNCTIONS DO NOT
SUPPORT BINARY MODE COMMUNICATION. USE ONLY THE
STANDARD, NON-BINARY MODE COMMUNICATION, WHICH IS THE
DEFAULT.
4-10 Supplemental Utilities for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series
INSTALLING AES ON A NOVELL NETWARE LAN
You can use AES when a Novell NetWare LAN is installed if
you do not want to use the PDF functions. A printer can be
installed at the file server, at a work station as a remote
printer, or at a work station as a local printer.
These configurations are possible:
o Printing on a remote printer that is physically con-
nected to the file server
o Printing on a remote printer that is physically con-
nected to a work station
o Printing on a local work station printer
NOTES:
1. The AES software can be installed only on a work
station and cannot be installed on a Novell NetWare
file server.
2. If you install AES while Microsoft Windows is active,
you must disable Print Manager.
As more printers are available, other configurations are
possible. Two basic limitations reduce the possibility
of using AES in setting up the LAN:
o A limited number of LPT-DOS port names (for example,
applications, CAPTURE, and AES limitations).
o AES runs on a work station that only supports one
attached emulation/mode switching printer.
NOTE: Do not start AES until the Novell NET3 or NET4
utility is started. The AES installation utility creates
the correct order in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file if you
answered "Yes" to the LAN question during the AES instal-
lation. If the network is not accessed from the work
station AUTOEXEC.BAT file, you can rename the
AUTOEXEC.AES file to AUTOEXEC.BAT. Then you can use the
STARTAES.BAT file to start AES after Novell NET3 or NET4
has been started.
Mode Switching on a Local Area Network 4-11
Use the following examples to set up AES on a Novell
NetWare LAN.
Printing on a File Server Printer
When the printer is connected to the file server, you
should install AES on all the work stations that use the
file server printer. When installing AES on each work
station, indicate to the AES Installation utility that
the printer is physically connected to the same LPTx port
name that the CAPTURE NetWare command uses.
Use the following steps when each work station is iden-
tically configured for printing with local work station
printers:
1. Install AES on each work station that uses LPT1 as
the physical port.
2. Assign the following defaults for each virtual AES
port:
LPT1=IBM PPDS
LPT2=HP-PCL
LPT3=PostScript
LPT4=Plotter
3. Complete the AES installation.
4. Restart the work station.
5. If not previously done, set up the print queues using
PCONSOLE.
6. Type the following NetWare command:
CAPTURE L=1 Q=printqname
Where "1" equals the AES physical output port of LPT1
and "printqname" equals the name you assigned to the
file server.
You can now print to LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, or LPT4 depending
on the desired emulation/mode.
Printing on a Remote Work Station Printer
When a remote printer is connected to a Novell work
station, you must use the RPRINTER NetWare utility on
that work station. AES must be installed on each work
station using the printer and the work station physically
attached to the printer. Use the steps in "Printing on a
File Server Printer" to set up all work stations on the
LAN except the work station where the printer is phys-
ically connected. On the work station where the printer
4-12 Supplemental Utilities for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series
is physically connected, install AES only if you want to
switch emulations/modes on that work station. AES does
not need to be installed to support emulation/mode
switching functions for the other work stations on the
LAN.
The following steps describe how to use AES with a
printer that is physically connected to one work station
and remotely available to all other work stations on the
LAN.
1. Install AES on the work station connected to the
remote printer using physical port LPT1.
2. Assign the following defaults to the virtual AES
ports:
LPT1=IBM PPDS
LPT2=HP-PCL
LPT3=PostScript
LPT4=Plotter
3. Complete the AES installation.
4. If not previously done, set up a remote printer queue
with PCONSOLE.
5. On the work station where the printer is connected,
type the following command:
RPRINTER L=1
Where 1 indicates the physical printer port LPT1.
6. On all work stations, type the following command:
CAPTURE L=1 Q=remoteqname
Where 1 indicates the port on the work station that
is redirected to AES and remoteqname is the Remote
Printer Queue defined in step 5.
7. Make sure that the line containing the EMMDSW.COM
command, in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file, is after the NET3
or NET4 NetWare statement.
8. Restart this work station.
You can now print to LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, or LPT4 depending
on the desired emulation/mode, and the job is routed to
the local printer on LPT1.
PRINTING ON A LOCAL NOVELL WORK STATION PRINTER
You can set up your work station to support a local
printer, which is not to be a remote printer, and still
have access to a shared file server printer.
NOTE: Since AES on a work station can only support one
destination printer, you can switch emulations/modes
through AES on either the local printer or the remotely
Mode Switching on a Local Area Network 4-13
attached printer; but not both simultaneously. The fol-
lowing example explains how to use IBM PPDS mode as found
in the IBM4029.PDF file on the remote printer and how to
use AES to switch emulations/modes on the local printer.
The following steps describe how to use AES on a printer
attached to physical port LPT1 on your work station and
access another file server printer in IBM PPDS mode.
1. Install AES on the work station.
2. Assign the following defaults for each virtual AES
port:
LPT1=HP-PCL
LPT2=PostScript
LPT3=None
LPT4=Plotter
NONE is used for the LPTx port that accesses the
printer attached to the file server.
3. Complete the AES installation.
4. If not previously done, set up the print queues using
PCONSOLE.
5. ADD the following statement to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
CAPTURE L=3 J=jobname
3 equals the LPT3 AES port set to NONE and jobname
equals the print job name used in PRINTCON that uses
the "IBM PPDS mode," as found in the IBM4029.PDF
file. This sets the printer to IBM PPDS mode at the
beginning of each print job.
6. Restart this work station.
You can now print to LPT1, LPT2, or LPT4 to switch
emulations/modes on your local printer; and when you
print to LPT3, the job is routed to the other file server
printer in IBM PPDS mode.
INSTALLING AES ON A BANYAN/VINES LAN
____________________________________
You can use AES on a Banyan/VINES LAN if you require mode
switching when printing to a:
o Printer that is physically connected to the file
server
o PC printer that is physically connected to one of the
work stations
o Locally attached work station printer
NOTE: Since AES is not a true network utility, it can
only be installed on the work stations. AES cannot be
installed on a Banyan/VINES file server.
4-14 Supplemental Utilities for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series
Other configurations are possible when more printer
resources are available. There are two limitations in
using AES that reduce the possibilities in setting up the
LAN:
o Limited number of LPT DOS port names, such as Appli-
cations, SETPRINT, AES limitations
o AES utility running on a PC can only support one
attached mode switching printer
NOTE: The startup of all VINES software must occur
before the startup of AES. If this startup procedure is
in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file, then the correct order is auto-
matically guaranteed by the installation of the AES
utility. This is completed by answering "YES" to the LAN
question asked during the installation of AES. If you do
not access the network from the work station AUTOEXEC.BAT
file, then rename the AUTOEXEC.AES to AUTOEXEC.BAT and
use the STARTAES.BAT file to start AES once VINES
(usually BAN) has been invoked.
The following three sections are configurations where the
AES utility can operate in the Banyan/VINES environment.
They may provide the LAN administrator assistance in
setting up AES on a Banyan/VINES LAN.
PRINTING ON A BANYAN/VINES FILE SERVER PRINTER
When the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series is connected to the
file server, you need to install AES on all work stations
that require mode switching on the file server printer.
When you install AES on a work station, indicate to the
installation portion of the AES utility that the printer
is physically connected to the same LPTx port name that
is to be used by the SETPRINT VINES command.
An example of how to install AES for printing to a
Banyan/VINES file server printer follows:
1. Install AES on each work station that requires mode
switching. Use LPT1 as the physical port.
2. Assign the following defaults for each virtual AES
port:
LPT1=IBM PPDS
LPT2=HP-PCL
LPT3=PostScript
LPT4=Plotter
3. Complete the AES installation.
4. Set up the network print service if this has not been
completed previously. Use the VINES MANAGE/MSERVICE
utility to set up the network print service.
5. Restart the work station.
Mode Switching on a Local Area Network 4-15
6. Type the Banyan/VINES network command:
"SETPRINT LPT1 /P:service_name "
PRINTING ON A WORK STATION PC PRINTER
When a PC printer is connected to a VINES work station,
you must use the PCPRINT command on the work station to
make the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series a network printer.
To access network printers attached to a PC, you need the
PC Network Printing option available from Banyan Systems
Incorporated. The AES software must be installed on each
work station that uses the network printer.
Complete the steps in "Printing on a File Server Printer"
on page 4-12 to properly set up all work stations on the
LAN. This includes the work station that has the printer
physically connected to it.
NOTE: On the work station physically connected to the
printer, AES only needs to be installed if mode switching
is desired when printing from this work station. AES
does not need to be installed to support mode switching
functions for the other work stations on the LAN.
To use AES on a printer that is physically connected to
one work station and remotely available to all other work
stations on the LAN, complete the following:
1. Install AES on the work station connected to the
remote printer using physical port LPT2.
If physical port LPT2 does not physically exist on
your computer, edit the CONFIG.SYS file. To edit
this file, change the /L=X parameter on the AES
DEVICE statement containing EMMDSW, where "x" is not
equal to the number of your actual physical port. In
this case, x=2. If LPT2 does not physically exist,
continue AES installation with a physical port that
does exist and then edit your CONFIG.SYS file.
2. Assign the following defaults to the virtual AES
ports:
LPT1=IBM PPDS
LPT2=HP-PCL
LPT3=PostScript
LPT4=Plotter
3. Complete installation of the AES utility.
4. Set up a remote printer service with the VINES
utility MANAGE/MSERVICE if this has not been com-
pleted previously.
5. On the work station that is physically connected to
the printer, type the following command: "PCPRINT
service_name LPT1"
4-16 Supplemental Utilities for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series
6. On the work station that contains the remote printer,
type the following VINES command: "SETPRINT
service_name LPT2"
The physical device, which is LPT2 in this example,
must be the same as the device used for the AES
installation. It is important to note that the
device does not have to exist physically.
PRINTING ON A WORK STATION (LOCAL) PRINTER
You can set up your work station to support a locally
attached IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series with AES that is
not to be a remote printer and still have access to a
shared file server printer without AES.
NOTE: AES on a work station can only support one desig-
nated printer, so you can perform mode switching through
AES on either the locally attached printer or the network
printer, but not both printers simultaneously. The
example on page 4-14 shows you how to set up a locally
attached IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series with an AES work
station and also how to print to a network IBM
LaserPrinter 4029 Series without using AES.
Mode Switching on a Local Area Network 4-17
To use AES on a printer attached to physical port LPT1 on
your work station and access another file server printer
in IBM PPDS mode:
1. Install AES on the work station.
2. Assign the following defaults for each virtual AES
port:
LPT1=HP-PCL
LPT2=PostScript
LPT3=None
LPT4=Plotter
3. Complete the AES installation.
4. Set up the Banyan/VINES print services using the
VINES MANAGE/MSERVICE utility if this has not been
completed previously.
5. Add the following statement to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
SETPRINT service_name LPT3
where 3 equals the LPT3 AES port set to NONE, so AES will
not affect data sent to this virtual port.
You can now print to LPT1, LPT2, or LPT4 to switch emu-
lation modes on your local printer. When you print to
LPT3, the job is sent to the Banyan/VINES file server
printer.

RESOURCE MANAGER UTILITY
________________________
DESCRIPTION OF THE RESOURCE MANAGER UTILITY
___________________________________________
Resource Manager (RM) is an OS/2-only utility that effi-
ciently manages printer memory by automatically down-
loading fonts and macros as required by a PPDS job data
stream. If sufficient space is not available, then RM
"unloads" fonts/macros already loaded to the printer and
loads the new resource required for the current print
job.
RM provides the capability of having an unlimited number
of fonts and macros available to applications. Because
RM tracks the printer memory, loading of inline fonts and
macros is reduced since RM knows if the resource is
already in the printer memory.
The font and macro capabilities make RM well suited for
handling electronic forms on a LAN server. RM is
designed to operate with OS/2 Versions SE 1.3, EE 1.3, or
higher software.
NOTE: If AES is not installed, RM can only manage a
printer attached through a parallel port (physical LPT
port) or a virtual parallel port configured for the IBM
4033 LAN Connection hardware.
RM FONT MANAGEMENT
__________________
RM manages two types of fonts:
SYSTEM FONTS Fonts defined to RM as permanent and avail-
able to all print jobs. These are the
fonts that are included in the RM font cat-
alogs.
INLINE FONTS Fonts defined within the data stream and
available only to that job stream. These
fonts are downloaded as part of the print
job.
Resource Manager Utility 5-1
FONT SELECTION
______________
Font selection emulates the printer font selection.
When exact font matches cannot be made, the best-fit font
is substituted and an errata page is printed following
the job indicating both the requested font and the sub-
stituted font.
NOTE: For bitmapped fonts only, the bitmap for the code
point as it is referenced is loaded to the printer. This
minimizes the unnecessary transmission delay associated
with loading bitmapped fonts.
Both the selection precedence and best-fit requirements
may be modified by the SEARCH and BEST-FIT parameters of
the Comprehensive Font Selection command. For more
information on this command, see the Technical Reference
for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series.
RM MACRO/FORMS MANAGEMENT
_________________________
RM manages two types of macros:
SYSTEM MACROS Macros permanently defined to RM for
access by all job streams. These macros
are defined in the file_path[SYS_MACRO]
subdirectory.
INLINE MACROS Macros defined locally within the job
stream.
RM MACRO PROCESSING
___________________
Macro management is a complex system since macros may be
nested and macros may also select fonts. RM must make
sure all the resources (fonts and other macros) are resi-
dent in the printer before allowing the macro to execute.
RM first searches the inline macro library and second the
system macro library.
Macro processing proceeds as follows:
o If the macro and all dependent resources exist in the
printer, send the macro invocation to the printer.
OR
o If the macro does not exist in the printer, search
the inline macro file.
5-2 Supplemental Utilities for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series
- If the macro is found, send the macro and all
dependent resources to the printer.
- If the macro is not found, search the system
macro file for the macro.
If the macro is found, send the macro and its
dependent resources to the printer.
Once the macro is found and sent to the printer, the
macro is executed.
NOTE: If the printer has insufficient memory to handle
all of the resources required, the job is terminated and
RM logs the error on the job errata sheet.
When used with the AES utility, PPDS defined fonts and
macros are remembered across job boundaries. If you exit
IBM PPDS mode, and then return to IBM PPDS mode, the
printer is restored to its original state in terms of
active fonts and macros.
NOTE: Resource Manager only supports IBM PPDS mode.
INSTALLING RM ON AN OS/2 ENVIRONMENT
____________________________________
To install and start the utility:
1. Insert the Supplemental Utilities diskette in a
diskette drive and make that drive active.
2. Type "INSTALL" at the prompt.
3. Follow the instructions on the screen to load the
utility.
4. When the installation is complete, remove the
diskette.
If you install RM, the STARTUP.CMD file may be updated,
and the OS2.INI file is updated. An \OS2\RMGR directory
is created during installation.
NOTE: When you install RM with AES, the AES defined PPDS
port is the port where RM should be installed. If you
install AES with RM, see "Using RM with AES" on
page 5-11.
Resource Manager Utility 5-3
Upon completion of installation, a STARTRM.CMD file is
built in the RMGR directory. If you choose not to update
the STARTUP.CMD file, you may start RM by issuing this
command:
d:\path\STARTRM
where "d:" is the drive the RM files were copied to and
"path" is the file path for the RM directory.
CONFIGURING RM
The first time you use RM after installation, the program
has no knowledge of fonts or macros available to it.
To configure RM for fonts, select the Catalog Font func-
tion under the menu item "File" to catalog or list RM
fonts. All downloadable font files for a given catalog
must be in the same subdirectory. Up to 16 catalogs may
be specified. Catalog naming or file specification is
limited to 8 characters for the file name and 3 charac-
ters for the file extension.
To configure RM for macros, copy user-defined macros to
the path specified at setup for system macros. Macros
must be designated as follows:
o SYSnnnnn.MCR is specified, where nnnnn is the macro
number as referenced in the data stream.
o Leading 0s must be specified, for example, macro # 1
must be specified as SYS00001.MCR.
5-4 Supplemental Utilities for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series
RM CONFIGURATION FILE
_____________________
You can create the RMCONFIG.CNF file before RM is
started, or it is created automatically by RM if one is
not found. This file contains information that may be
useful for altering RM to a specific user environment.
It is recommended that you use the defaults initially.
You can then modify the file to override the defaults.
To modify the configuration file, select the menu item
"File" and then select "Configuration file" from the
pull-down menu. This information is provided as refer-
ence material since online help is provided for the con-
figuration dialogs.
NOTE: All references to NVRAM refer to printer NVRAM.
The format of the RMCONFIG.CNF file is as follows:
+------------------+------------------+---------------------------------+

| | | invoked, then it deletes an inac-|
| | | tive macro if necessary to down- |
| | | load a new one. |
| | | |
| | | NOTE: Since a minimum of 204 |
| | | bytes must be allocated for each |
| | | user macro, this limit cannot |
| | | exceed the MACRO_MEMORY_LIMIT |
| | | divided by 204. See page 5-5. |
+-----------------+------------------+----------------------------------|
| 0 | MIN_SYS_MAC- | The smallest ID to be used for |

| | | RM to try to read a system macro |
| | | from file SYSnnnnn.MCR on sub- |
| | | directory FILE_PATH{SYSTEM_MACRO}|
| | | on page 5-7. |
| | | |
| | | To minimize I/O operations, |
| | | installations should normally |

RM PANELS
_________
RM provides two display panels to assist in problem
determination and memory/performance tuning:
RM MESSAGE LOG Contains time-stamped message of all RM
activity. Messages are prioritized by
severity so that MIN_MSG_LEVEL of the
RMCONFIG.CNF file sets the threshold
for the minimum message level logged.
The start time and completion time of
the job are always displayed. See
MIN_MSG_LEVEL on page 5-5 for more
information.
DEVICE STATISTICS Each LPT has a device statistics window
associated with it. The amount of PC
memory and printer memory used and
other pertinent information is dis-
played.
Using information from both panels allows RM to be opti-
mized to the specific user environment by adjusting
RMCONFIG.CNF parameters.
RM JOB ERRATA LOG
_________________
RM prints an errata sheet following each job in which
warnings or errors occurred. This sheet includes such
items as font substitutions, where both the requested
font and the substituted font are listed.

USING RM WITH AES
_________________
RM is a powerful tool that can greatly enhance your
printing performance on the IBM LaserPrinter, but only
when you use IBM PPDS mode. When the printer changes
emulation modes, any PPDS resources in the printer, such
as downloaded macros or fonts are lost. Therefore, if
mode switching is frequently performed on the printer, RM
becomes less effective in enhancing your overall system
performance.
RM can be used with the AES utility that accompanies the
Supplemental Utilities package. When these two utilities
work together, reduced performance can occur from mode
switching. But, these two utilities communicate to
ensure RM is made aware when AES switches the printer
from IBM PPDS mode. Multiple, sequential jobs sent to
the PPDS port of AES will not cause a loss of printer
resources. However, jobs sent to non-PPDS ports of AES
will cause RM to be reset.
If installed with AES, the RM port must be the same LPTx
port that AES defines as the IBM PPDS port. For example,
the printer is physically attached to the PC or PS/2 on
COM1. When AES is installed, the following port assign-
ments are made:
LPT1=PostScript
LPT2=PPDS
LPT3=Plotter
When RM is installed, make sure it is installed on the
virtual port LPT2, since this is the port AES has
assigned as IBM PPDS mode in the IBM LaserPrinter 4029
Series printers.
RM and AES are implemented as Character Device Monitors
within the architecture of the OS/2 environment. AES
needs to precede RM on the monitor chain, so that the
virtual port redirection functions of AES work properly.
This is automatically taken care of by the OS/2 installa-
tion utility, AES, and RM.

USING RM WITH A SERIALLY ATTACHED PRINTER
_________________________________________
AES must be installed for serially-attached printers
using RM. The virtual LPTx port configured as the AES
PPDS port is the same LPTx port configured for RM. If
AES is only providing serial redirection, then only one
virtual port needs to be configured for AES. See "Auto-
matic Emulation/Mode Switching Utility" for information
on AES setup.

This chapter discusses the use of the AES utility with
different systems. It contains information on removing a
previously installed utility, changing the installed LPT
to emulation/mode mapping, using AES with the IBM Printer
Sharing Option, using AES with binary mode communication,
and using AES with the IBM Personal System/1* (PS/1*)
computer.
REMOVING THE PREVIOUSLY INSTALLED AES UTILITY
_____________________________________________
To remove the AES utility from your computer if DOS AES
is installed:
1. Delete the AES directory created when you installed
AES.
2. Use the backup files to restore the original
AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files. The backup files
are named AUTOEXEC.AES and CONFIG.AES.
NOTE: If you installed AES with Microsoft Windows
software, you need to restore the backup file of the
WIN.INI file and the SYSTEM.INI file. The backup
files are named WIN.AES and SYSTEM.AES and are
located in the Microsoft Windows directory.
WARNING: USE OF THE BACKUP FILES RESULTS IN THE LOSS
OF ANY OTHER CHANGES YOU MAY HAVE MADE TO THE ORI-
GINAL FILES SINCE THE INSTALLATION OF THE AES
UTILITY.
To remove AES from your computer if OS/2 AES is
installed:
1. Delete the AES directory.
2. Use the backup file to restore the original
STARTUP.CMD file. The backup file is named
STARTUP.AES.

DISABLING AND RESTARTING AES
____________________________
To disable AES during a DOS session:
1. Change to the \AES subdirectory where the AES files
were stored when AES was installed.
2. Type "EMMDSW /R" at the prompt.
To enable AES after typing this command, you must restart
your computer or change to the \AES subdirectory, type
"STARTAES" and press Enter.
To disable AES during an OS/2 session:
1. Select the AES icon.
2. Select "Remove AES."
This disables AES until you restart your computer or AES.
To enable AES after typing this command, you must restart
your computer or change to the \OS2\AES subdirectory,
type "STARTAES", and press Enter.
FINDING THE INSTALLED LPT TO EMULATION/MODE MAPPING
___________________________________________________
To find the AES installed LPT virtual printer ports to
the emulation/mode mapping for DOS installation, view the
file EMMDSW.CFG or enter the EMMDSW command in the AES
directory.
To do this for the OS/2 installation, view the file
LEXAES.CFG or select the AES icon to query the virtual
printer port assignments.
CHANGING THE INSTALLED LPT TO EMULATION/MODE MAPPING
____________________________________________________
To change the emulation/mode to virtual LPT port assign-
ments, you must reinstall the AES utility and follow the
instructions for assigning emulation/modes to the virtual
LPT ports. See "Automatic Emulation/Mode Switching
Utility" on page 3-1 and "Mode Switching on a Local Area
Network" on page 4-1 for more information.
USING AES AND THE IBM PRINTER SHARING OPTION
____________________________________________
The IBM Printer Sharing Option (PSO) is a combination of
hardware and software that allows up to six computers to
share one printer.
6-2 Supplemental Utilities for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series
To use the AES utility with the PSO:
1. Install the PSO hardware but do not install the PSO
application software (SP.COM and SSDI.BAT). Remove
these applications if they are already installed.
2. Install AES to output to a COM port that you connect
to the PSO.
3. Send your print jobs to the mapped virtual LPTx
ports. The printer emulation/mode for the resulting
output is switched through the PSO.
NOTES:
1. Other computers attached to the PSO should have AES
installed since the printer remains in the
emulation/mode selected by the previous job.
However, another computer running the SP application
software will work.
2. For any serial channels that are connected to the
host computer running AES, job prefixes or suffixes
programmed in the PSO are not recommended.
3. Switch setting 10 "Append Form Feed" should be disa-
bled (ON position).
SETTING UP YOUR RISC SYSTEM/6000 SYSTEM
_______________________________________
Your RISC System/6000 system using AIX Version 3 oper-
ating system provides built-in support for your IBM
LaserPrinter 4029 Series AES function.
The following instructions describe how to install the
necessary 4029 printer files on the RISC System/6000
system using an AIX Version 3.1.5 (or earlier) operating
system. It is assumed that you have basic knowledge of
the RISC System/6000 system and the configuration of
printers using the System Management Interface Tool
(SMIT).
A RISC System/6000 system and an AIX Version 3 operating
system support automatic switching between IBM PPDS mode,
PCL4 emulation or PCL5 emulation, Plotter mode, and
PostScript mode. To enable this capability, copy the
4029 files from the utility diskette to the AIX operating
system.
To install the 4029 files on a RISC System/6000 system:
1. Insert the Supplemental Utilities diskette in the
default diskette drive.
2. Type the following commands and press Enter:
dosread -a /AIX/4029.asc /usr/lpd/pio/predef/4029.asc
dosread -a /AIX/4029.pcl /usr/lpd/pio/predef/4029.pcl
dosread -a /AIX/4029.gl /usr/lpd/pio/predef/4029.gl
dosread -a /AIX/4029.ps /usr/lpd/pio/predef/4029.ps
Additional Topics 6-3
3. Type the following commands and press Enter:
chmod 664 /usr/lpd/pio/predef/4029*
To configure the printer on the RISC System/6000 system,
use SMIT to define the following:
NOTE: If the printer is being attached to either an
Xstation(1) or a network printer adapter, go to step 2.
1. Printer device: if the printer is directly attached
to the RISC System/6000 system, then define the
printer as either an "other parallel" or "other
serial" printer.
2. Virtual printer: select the" IBM 4029 LaserPrinter"
from the printer list. A printer queue may be
created for each mode of the printer: IBM PPDS mode,
PCL4 emulation or PCL5 emulation, Plotter mode, and
PostScript mode.
For additional information, see the AIX_READ.ME file in
the /AIX/ directory on the Supplemental Utilities
diskette.

REPLACING A 4216-031 OR 4019
____________________________
If you have the AES utility installed on an IBM 4216-031
or an IBM 4019-001 printer while using DOS or OS/2 envi-
ronments, the following information may help you replace
the 4216 AES or 4019 AES with the 4029 AES.
When you replace an IBM 4216-031 or IBM 4019 printer with
another printer, you need to reinstall AES. For complete
instructions, see "Installing AES on a DOS Work Station"
on page 3-4 or "Installing AES on a Microsoft Windows
Work Station" on page 3-5.
The utility automatically removes all references to the
AES utility in the CONFIG.SYS, AUTOEXEC.BAT, and
STARTUP.CMD files.
COMPATIBILITY WITH PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF AES
___________________________________________
In the DOS environment, the 4029 AES only functions prop-
erly with the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series. You must use
the 4019 Version of the DOS AES utility for use on a IBM
LaserPrinter Model 4019. Similarly, you must use the
4216-031 Version for use on a IBM Personal Page Printer
II Model 31.
In the OS/2 environment, version 3.1 of the AES utility
works with both the IBM LaserPrinter 4019 and IBM
LaserPrinter 4029. This version does not support the IBM
Personal Page Printer II Model 31.
USING AES TO CONTROL MULTIPLE PRINTERS
______________________________________
In the DOS environment, AES can only control one physical
printer at a time. If you want to have one printer on
physical port LPT1 and another on COM1, AES can only
perform mode switching on one of the printers, not both
printers.
In the OS/2 environment, version 3.1 of the utility now
supports control of multiple printers connected to the
same physical system. Because of the limitations of
having only LPT1, LPT2, and LPT3 in an OS/2 system during
installation of AES, you are offered the option of adding
additional available LPT ports. If you choose, four
additional LPT ports are made available for AES if you
are using OS/2 Version 1.3 or higher software. This
allows you to define ports LPT1-LPT7.
An LPTX.SYS OS/2 device driver is copied to the
C:\OS2\AES subdirectory and your CONFIG.SYS file is
altered. This LPTX.SYS device driver adds additional
Additional Topics 6-5
LPTx ports for use with AES. So, printer 1 could use
virtual ports LPT1, LPT2, and LPT3 for three of its emu-
lation modes, and printer 2 could use virtual ports LPT4,
LPT5, LPT6, and LPT7 for four of its emulation modes.
NOTES:
1. If the LPTX.SYS driver that accompanies the IBM 4033
LAN connection adapter is present, the AES installa-
tion utility does not change it.
2. A LAN administrator might consider use of mode
switching separator pages in "Using Emulation/Mode
Switching Separator Pages on an OS/2 or Microsoft
LAN" on page 4-7 rather than using AES to control
multiple printers.
USING AES WITH BINARY MODE COMMUNICATION
________________________________________
The printer operates in one of two communication modes:
non-binary or binary. The factory default is non-binary
mode communication.
You put the printer in one of these communication modes
by using the operator panel or by sending a command from
the computer to the printer. See "Setting Binary Mode
Communication on the Printer" on page 6-7 for more infor-
mation. The AES installation utility normally sets the
AES utility in non-binary mode communication. However,
you can operate the printer in binary mode communication
with the AES utility if you set up the AES utility and
the printer for binary mode communication.
Non-binary mode communication meets most job require-
ments. However, if you need to improve your print job
recovery for printing jobs that are canceled or inter-
rupted by the host computer, especially in a shared
printer environment, you need to set the printer and the
AES utility to binary mode communication. This allows
the printer to recover automatically from partially
transmitted print jobs. This means that when binary mode
communication is active and a print job is canceled from
the host computer, the next print job starts normally.
For example, if AES and the printer are not set to binary
mode communication and a job is canceled from the host
computer, the printer may or may not recover the job
depending on when the print job was canceled from the
host computer. The next print job or jobs may not print
or may print with incorrect output.
With binary mode communication in AES, the printer sup-
ports Binary Image PostScript communications protocol
mode from application software. If you use your printer
6-6 Supplemental Utilities for the IBM LaserPrinter 4029 Series
for a large amount of PostScript image printing and your
application supports Binary Image PostScript communi-
cations protocol mode, you will notice an improvement in
PostScript job performance time when you use the printer
and AES in binary mode communication.
To set the AES installation utility for binary mode
communication:
1. Place the Supplemental Utilities diskette into a
diskette drive and make the drive active.
2. At the DOS prompt, type "AESINST /B" and press Enter.
At the OS/2 prompt, type "INSTALL /B" and press
Enter.
3. Follow the instructions that are given.
4. Set binary mode communication for your printer. See
"Setting Binary Mode Communication on the Printer"
for more information.
IMPORTANT: The binary mode setting on your printer must
match the setting selected when the AES utility was
installed. Your print jobs might not print correctly if
the settings do not match. If you are not using the AES
utility, binary mode communication should be off. The
factory default setting is off.
SETTING BINARY MODE COMMUNICATION ON THE PRINTER
To set or change the binary mode settings on the printer
from the printer operator panel, complete the following
steps:
1. Press (MAIN MENU) until {BINARY MODE} is dis-
played.
2. Press (LIST +) until the choice you want to use
is displayed.
3. Hold down (ALT) while you press (SAVE) to save the
setting as a user default setting.
Instructions on how to set values for other parameters
are given in the Technical Reference for the IBM
LaserPrinter 4029 Series.
