With print-to-file and Windows printer capabilities, ExcelliPrint bridges the gap between advanced printing and output device choice. ExcelliPrint offers IPDS users the following features:
| Feature | Description | Benefit |
| Support for all IPDS Towers | Supports the Text, IM Image, IO Image, Graphics, Font, and Bar Code (Barcode) towers of the IPDS architecture.
| ExcelliPrint's support of all IPDS towers allows you to harness the power of IBM's Advanced Function Presentation (AFP), bringing it to your Windows environment. |
| Driver independent printing | ExcelliPrint prints directly to ANY Windows-based printer. | No need to purchase an IPDS printer or additional hardware for your printer; ExcelliPrint spools your mainframe/mid-range AFP data to any Windows environment. |
| AFP (IPDS & AFPDS) and SCS to PDF | Converts legacy formats to the universal PDF format. | PDF is one of the most widely used formats. ExcelliPrint allows you to easily convert your AFP documents into PDF for easy viewing, distribution, etc. For AFP to PDF conversion we refer IHS Systems |
| Conversion of IPDS, AFPDS, and SCS to other formats | Save incoming print jobs in a variety of widely used file formats. | ExcelliPrint can convert your IPDS documents to PDF and widely used printer-ready formats including PCL. |
| Print-to-file archiving | The ability to save files to selected archive folders on the user's computer or on the network. | You can save the converted IPDS output to a network storage unit, a Windows share, or your own PC. This gives you the ability to archive and manage your print jobs. |
| Multiple ports listening for print requests simultaneously | User can configure multiple ports, each with its own IPDS printer emulation and output device; each user-configured port can accept simultaneous connections. | Unlike other IPDS solutions, ExcelliPrint accepts data on multiple connections on a single port without delays and supports multiple ports. As a result, you can consolidate multiple IPDS printers without server-side modifications. |
| Support for two output devices | A device can be a printer or folder; users can configure up to two. Devices can be local or remote. | Unlike comparable products that are licensed for only one device, ExcelliPrint supports two output devices. ExcelliPrint includes sophisticated archiving abilities normally found in high-end solutions. |
| Runs as a Windows service | ExcelliPrint runs as a native Windows service. | The application receives print jobs without requiring a Windows user to be logged in to the computer where ExcelliPrint is running. |
| Browser-based interface | Platform-independent browser allows simple, efficient administration from ANY authorized computer. | All you need is a browser for easy local and remote administration; quickly and easily view your log, setup, devices, and more. Make changes to your devices and jobs within your existing Web browser. |
| Secure Web interface | The application uses a secure Web interface that supports SSL and offers role-based administration. | ExcelliPrint's embedded Web server supports SSL and does not require Apache or IIS to be installed. Because we use SSL, sensitive information remains protected. |
| Role-based administration | Role-based administration allows fine control of ExcelliPrint settings and functions. | ExcelliPrint provides different levels of administrative privilege to fit your company's security needs. |
| IBM iSeries device management | Users are able to create iSeries print devices or redirect existing devices using the browser-based interface. | Easily configure an AS/400 to print to the ExcelliPrint client. |
| Spooled file management | Spooled files can be held or released without the need of an additional emulator. | No need for additional software to release your IPDS spooled files. ExcelliPrint provides a convenient and efficient interface to manage spooled files. |
