CITY OF LODI COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
AGENDA TITLE: Purchase of IBM 3130-03S Printer ($18,649.37)
MEETING DATE: April 7, 1999
PREPARED BY: Finance Director and Informations Systems Manager
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council authorize the purchase of one IBM 3130-03S
high-speed system printer from Orcom Solutions of Bend, Oregon,
in the amount of $18,849.37.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: In April, 1998, the City Council approved the purchase of Orcom
Solutions software to replace the legacy utility billing software. The
new software gives the City the opportunity to redesign the utility
bill to meet the disclosure requirements of deregulation. A new
high-speed, high-volume system printer will be required to handle the revised utility bill format.
The Purchasing Division obtained the following three quotations for this printer:
Orcom Solutions, Bend, OR $18,649.37 (20% off list price)
Logical Design, Sacramento $18,649.37
IBM, Sacramento $19,048.39 (CMAS price, 19% off list)
Although Orcom and Logical Design offered identical quotes, it is staff's recommendation to purchase
the printer from Orcom Solutions because of the City's current relationship with Orcom (through the
utility billing software and implementation).

SUBJECT: IBM Printer Pricing
My apologies for the delay in responding to your inquiry regarding CMAS pricing on the IBM
3130-03S Printer... one of the suppliers was not very responsive (in faci, 1 still don't have
pricing from them).
Nevertheless, i did receive CMAS pricing from one other supplier, and non-CMAS pricing from
a third, which, with the price from Orcom, gives us the required three quotes. .
Orcom's price is 20% off list, and is a delivered price (according to Doug Headrick at Orcom).
IBM's CMAS price is 19% off list; Logical Design's price is 20% off list.

The IBM' 3130 Advanced Function
Printer is a 30 impression per min-
ute (fpm), highly -reliable, cutsheet,
duplex printer. The IBM 3130 sup-
ports multiple printer data streams,
multiple concurrent Interfaces, and
provides exceptional paper handl-
ing options. These functions com-
bine with IBM's powerful Advanced
Function Common Control Unit
(AFCCU) to provide a printer which
can support traditional Intelligent
Printing Data Stream' (IPDS') envi-
ronments. as well as local area
network (LAN) environments.
Shared Envirvraeents
Today's environments require sup-
port of multiple printer data
streams. The IBM 3130 supports
PostScript- Level 2. PCL403e, and
IBM's traditional strength, IPDS.
Native support of all three data
streams means one printer can
support both host and LAN appfica-
tions. Data stream sensing and
switching are also supported.
Connectivity requirements are
changing as well. The IBM 3130
supports:
Standard high speed parallel in-
terface
Ethernet Interface
18.2 or 58Kbps SDLC interface
• Token -Ring interface
• Twinaxial Interface
An Ethernet interface, the parallel
interface, and one additional Inter-
face may be concurrently active on
the IBM 3130. Jobs may be re-
ceived from the three active ports
and directed to separate output
stackers.
Sharing interfaces and supporting
multiple data streams does not
equate to sharing paper sources or
output stackers. While the four
available input trays can be linked,
they also can be dedicated to an
application. Likewise, output
stackers can be dedicated to an
application or department. This
flexible combination means up to
three diverse application environ-
ments can share the some physical
printer, and still retain job sepa-
ration all the way from the input
tray to the offset stacker.
Forms Flexibility
User applications require forms
flexibility. The IBM 3130 supports
paper sizes ranging from 05, all the
way up to ledger size. Legal, letter,
A3, A4. and 64 papers are also
supported. The IBM 3130 can also
print on card stock and labels. All
of the drawers in the base footprint
can support all of the supported
paper sizes. A 500 sheet side input
tray supports A4 and tetter sizes.
Up to four input trays are supported
on the IBM 3130. Throe tray sizes
are supported: 250, 500, and 2,000
sheets. All models support 3,000
sheets of paper from four input
trays.
Up to three output stackers can be
installed on the IBM 3130; two 500
sheet offset stackers are standard
and a 1,500 sheet offset stacker is
optional. All models can be config-
ured with all three output stackers,
for a total output capacity of 2,500
sheets.
Pedanmance
Maintaining rated speed in a
shared environment becomes crit-
ical. The IBM 3130 takes advantage
FROM : ORCOM SOLUTIONS
of the AFCCU. The AFCCU is based
on IBM's recognized RISC technol-
ogy. This control unit supports
printers as diverse as the IBM 3900
Advanced Function Duplex Printing
System and the IBM 3130.
Besides providing additional at-
tachment flexibility, the AFCCU Im-
proves performance for the most
complex jobs. This control unit in-
cludes capabilities which were fea-
tures on earlier control units, such
as Advanced Function Image and
Graphics and Decompression Per-
formance Enhancement And; like
previous control units, it can be ex-
tended with new capabilities in the
future. Al the same time, the IBM
3130 can print applications which
print on other IPDS printers_
