Product Overview
The architecture of the Barr/Channel Out SDK centers on enabling communication between client applications and mainframe-attached printers. , printer) on the mainframe. The client application, running on Windows or UNIX, initiates print jobs.
The Barr Channel Interface acts as the intermediary, handling the low-level communication details. It translates the print data and sends it to the mainframe-attached printer using ESCON or Bus and Tag protocols. The communication flow begins with the client application formatting the print data and sending it to the Barr Channel Interface.
The Interface then packages the data and transmits it over the channel connection. The mainframe-attached printer receives the data and processes it. The SDK does not use any specific databases or storage mechanisms for print data.
The network requirements include connectivity to the mainframe via ESCON or Bus and Tag. The client application requires network access to the mainframe. The SDK does not have a dedicated administrative interface.
Configuration parameters include channel connection details and device addresses. Security is handled at the network and mainframe levels. The SDK does not provide built-in encryption or audit logging.
