Windows client

The Infoprint Server Windows client consists of this program:

Infoprint Port Monitor for Windows
Software that runs on a Windows workstation. It lets you print files on z/OS printers just like you print files on local Windows printers. You can submit the files from any Windows application that has a printing function. After the Infoprint Port Monitor is installed and configured on the Windows system, it automatically sends documents to the Print Interface component of Infoprint Server.

Infoprint Port Monitor V3.1 runs on Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, Windows Vista (Business Edition, Enterprise Edition), and Windows XP.

Note:
Infoprint Port Monitor V3.1 can run on 32-bit Windows systems or on 64-bit Windows systems that are based on x64 architecture. However, it cannot run on 64-bit Windows systems that are based on Intel Itanium architecture.

Infoprint Port Monitor V3.1 is shipped with Infoprint Server. You can also download Infoprint Port Monitor V3.1 at http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=psd1P1000597.

Note:
Infoprint Server also supports printing from a Windows system with the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol and the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP). To use the SMB and IPP protocols, Windows users do not need to install the Infoprint Port Monitor.

You might want to use these products if your installation has AFP printers or prints AFP documents:

IBM® AFP Printer Driver for Windows
Creates output files in AFP format. Files in AFP format can be printed on AFP printers. The driver can create output files that contain documents, overlays, or page segments. It can also create inline form definitions for printing documents with special options, such as printing on both sides of the paper.
IBM AFP Viewer plug-in for Windows
Lets you view documents in AFP format. For example, documents downloaded from the z/OS system or documents on the web. The viewer also lets you print AFP documents on AFP printers and on non-AFP printers.
Note:
You can download the AFP Printer Driver for Windows and the AFP Viewer plug-in for Windows from the IBM website at http://www.ibm.com. On the IBM website, search for "AFP Printer Driver" and "AFP Viewer plug-in".
