Overview

PSS™ - AFP printing on network printers and AFP2PDF conversion

PSS™, Print SubSystem, mainframe software provides an AFP, XML and line data printing solution using PCL and PostScript printers. PSS™ also converts AFP to PDF on the mainframe (MVS only). PSS™ prints OS/390 spool data (VM: CP spool) on network printers via either TCP/IP or SNA. Like IBM PSF, PSS™ runs as a Functional Subsystem (VM: GCS service machine). Using the same AFP applications and resources such as fonts, overlays, logos, etc. as IBM PSF, the PSS™ is a comprehensive and cost effective solution for within the IBM AFP concept.
