936.0. "IBM 3890/3892 use from an AlphaServer" by ANNECY::16.40.240.131::RENAUDEAU () Mon Apr 21 1997 10:05

			Hello,

	We are working on a a customer RFP. The goal is to replace, in every agency, the IBM4381 
with AlphaServers under Digital Unix. But the customer has a bunch of IBM 3890/3892 OCR (Optical 
Character Reader). 

	How is it possible to connect and use 3890/3892 (connected over Token-Ring) from an 
Alphaserver ? Which protocols and file formats are used over token-ring to get the datas read 
from the 3890/92 ? Same for the customisation program to be downloaded into the 3890/2 ?

	Any information on the 3890 or 3892, any thoughts are very welcome...

	Thank you for your help. Bests regards,
