Hardware Announcement August 26, 2003 IBM 4247-V03 Impact Matrix Printer Stand and IBM 4247-003 Printer enhancements Overview At a glance Printer stand for 4247-V03 now available The IBM 4247 Model V03 is a professional industrial impact matrix printer capable of printing at speeds of up to 1100 characters-per-second (cps) in fast draft mode. The new IBM 4247 Model V03 Printer Stand: • Supports dual continuous forms front tractor paper paths with easy loading and unloading of forms An open printer stand designed specifically for the Model V03 is now available. Key features of this stand include: • A paper separator to ensure paper separation when loading, unloading, or feeding forms from either of the two front continuous forms tractors • Has three stacking heights for the paper output tray • Sturdy construction designed specifically to support the 4247-V03 high-speed print action • • Adjustable stacking height for paper output tray Has exceptionally strong construction designed specifically for the IBM 4247-V03′s footprint, weight, and printing action (vibration) • Contains a separator guide to ensure the separation of each continuous form Improved configurability and print throughput for the IBM 4247-003 Impact Matrix Printer Enhancements for the 4247-003 printer include: • Configuration flexibility to enable all interface cards to be user-installable (Customer Setup) and switchable • Print throughput improvement Enhancements to the IBM 4247-003 Printer include: • Improved configuration flexibility • 5% print throughput improvement Planned availability date August 29, 2003 For ordering, contact: Your IBM representative, an IBM Business Partner, or the Americas Call Centers at 800-IBM-CALL Reference: YE001 This announcement is provided for your information only. For additional information, contact your IBM representative, call 800-IBM-4YOU, or visit the IBM home page at: http://www.ibm.com.

This table only applies to 4247-003 printers shipped after August 26, 2003, with Internal Base Code Level 6.05 or above. If Code 6.05 is required on a 4247-003 printer that shipped with earlier code, an RPQ must be submitted. A procedure to determine the level of code installed in a printer is explained in the Supplementary information in this letter. For easy identification of boxed printers that have code level 6.05 and higher, the printer part number printed on the box label has been changed from 01PXXXX to 75PXXXX (where XXXX can be any number). The 01PXXXX numbers were used on printers shipped prior to 6.05 code. IBM 4247-V03 Printer Stand All of these replacements and additions are easily installed by customers, and do not require IBM Field Engineering for installation. The IBM 4247-V03 Printer Stand has three main sections: • A flat table surface to hold the printer • An input paper tray to hold forms before they are fed through the printer • An output paper tray for stacking forms after they are printed The table is designed specifically to support the features of the IBM 4247-V03, and since this stand accommodates the footprint and weight of the 4247-V03, printer vibration is minimized. Any Any Any Any Any Any Twinax SCS Twinax IPDS Serial Ethernet LAN Coax IPDS Coax SCS 4212 4222 4252 4262 4242 4232 Attachment Attachment Attachment Attachment Attachment Attachment “Any Attachment” is Twinax IPDS, Twinax SCS, Coax SCS, Coax IPDS, Serial, Ethernet LAN, and includes “no attachment,” which is the standard parallel adapter. Bulk order for optional features For most products, the quantity of any feature that can be ordered is the same as the maximum number of the feature allowed per machine. Since the IBM 4247-003 features are now all customer setup (for 4247 Model 003 with Licensed Internal Code Level 6.05 or higher), in some cases it is desirable to bulk order certain features so that machines can be easily reconfigured by Business Partners and end users. Thus, for 4247-003 MES features, the maximum order quantity is normally 10, which is greater than the maximum that can be installed on one printer. When dual continuous forms are used, one form rests on the input paper tray and the other form rests on the floor underneath the input tray. The printer stand is customer set-up and can be easily assembled in about 30 minutes. The original higher-priced enclosed cabinet style printer stand (#4462) is still available. Improved configurability for the IBM 4247-V03 Printer A field-installable option to install Coax SCS (#4232) is now available. Previously, Coax SCS was available as an initial order feature only. This new feature is easily installed by a customers, and can be used to field replace the following adapters: The maximum number of initial-order attachment features that can be ordered is one. Use the MES feature numbers for bulk orders.

The stand accommodates two continuous forms and a separator in the front of the stand is used to ensure that the forms are kept separate. • • • • • Installed attachment adapter* The print speed of the IBM 4247-003 has been improved slightly for models with internal base code level 6.05 and higher. The improved code provides approximately a 5% greater throughput performance. -2- Feature description Open Printer Stand (#4461): Provides a sturdy printer stand designed for the IBM 4247 Model V03 printer. • • • • • • • Maximum Per 4247-V03 printer: One Maximum Order Quantity: Ten Minimum: None Co-requisites: None Prerequisites: None Field Installation: Yes Customer Setup: Yes Coax SCS Attachment (MES order) (#4232): Provides attachment card and microcode for 4247-V03 or 4247-003 attachment to host systems via Coax attachment using SCS datastreams. • • • • • Maximum: One Minimum: None Customer Setup: Yes Co-requisites: None Prerequisites: 4247-V03 or 4247-003 printer A 4247-003 printer must have Base Code level 6.05 or higher.
