What is IPDS?

IPDS stands for Intelligent Printer Data Stream. It is an IBM architecture for printing data streams in networked environments, commonly used in mainframe environments for high-volume, reliable printing. It allows for bi-directional communication between the printer and the host system, enabling features like error recovery and resource management. IPDS describes each page as a collection of objects (text, images, barcodes) and provides precise control over print formatting and appearance.
