DICOM Conformance Statement May 21, 2003

0. Introduction
This document provides the conformance statement for PrintServer application
software incorporated in Sony Film Station UP-DF500.

1. Implementation Model
PrintServer is either one Application Entity or two Application Entities having identical
functionality. Print Server provides standard DICOM Verification Service Class and
Print Management Service Class interface.

1.1 Application Data Flow Diagram

Prints images Request

on films UP-DF500 Image Print

PrintServer
Application
Request
Echo Check

Standard DICOM
Interface

1.2 Functional Definitions

PrintServer can act as SCP for Verification Service Class and Print Management
Service Class. The functionality includes:
- DICOM Association.
- Receiving images and formatting them.
- Printing on films.
- Managing one or two printers and notifying Printer Status.
- Respond to Echo Check requests.

1.3 Sequencing of Real-World Activities

Real world activities are sequenced as required in the definition of Print
Management Service Class. There is no additional sequencing.

DICOM Conformance Statement May 21, 2003

2. AE Specification
PrintServer provides standard conformance to the Verification Service Class and
Print Management Service Class as shown in Table 2. It may have one or two AE
Titles, depending on configuration. AE Titles are user programmable. If two AE Titles
are programmed, two entities act independently with identical functionality. That is,
two sets of printers share the same network hardware interface, but they are
logically independent with separate AE Titles.

2.1 Association Establishment Policy

2.1.1 General
PrintServer accepts associations from SCUs for the supported SOP classes.
The maximum PDU size negotiated during association establishment is 8192 bytes.
If SCU does not use DIMSE Service for more than 365 seconds while association is
being established, PrintServer will send A-ABORT and disconnect network
connection.

2.1.2 Number of Associations

PrintServer supports maximum 8 associations simultaneously.

2.1.3 Asynchronous Nature

Print Server does not support negotiation of multiple outstanding transactions.

2.1.4 Implementation Identifying Information

Implementation Class UID: 1.2.840.113820.81.11
Implementation Version Name: EBM_DICOM_81_11

DICOM Conformance Statement May 21, 2003

2.2 Association Initiation Policy

PrintServer does not initiate associations.

2.3 Association Acceptance Policy

After system power-up sequence, PrintServer always accepts associations initiated
by remote SCUs, unless number of simultaneous associations exceeds the limit.
Besides the number of simultaneous associations, there is no limit or restriction.

2.3.1 Associated Real-World Activity

When SCU sends a request to create or set film session, film box and image box,
PrintServer creates or changes them accordingly.
When SCU sends a queries the status of the printer, PrintServer responds with printer
status information.
When SCU sends a verification request, PrintServer responds to the request.

2.3.4 Transfer Syntax Selection Policy

PrintServer accepts only Implicit VR Little Endian transfer syntax.

2.3.5 SOP Specific Conformance

2.3.5.1 Verification Service Class
PrintServer provides standard conformance to the DICOM Verification Service Class.

2.3.5.2 Basic Grayscale Print Management Meta SOP Class

Note 1
PrintServer does not limit value range for (0028,0010) Rows and (0028,0011) Columns.
If SCU chooses to send scaled pre-formatted image in “STANDARD¥1,1” Image
Display Format, it is recommended to set Row=5060 and Columns=4224 for
“PORTRAIT” orientation or Rows=4224 and Columns=5060 for “LANDSCAPE”
orientation and to set (2010,0060) Magnification Type to “NONE”.
For the best printing performance, it is recommended not to pre-format. Sending
scaled pre-formatted image (one scaled image per film) causes longer network
transfer time and significantly slower printing performance.

Note 2
(0028,0034) Pixel Aspect Ratio value is ignored, if (2010,0060) Magnification Type
specified for the Film Box is “NONE”.

4. Extensions / Specializations / Privatizations

Not applicable.

5. Configuration
The following parameters are configurable using Web browser interface.
- Local IP Address, Sub-net mask and default gateway IP Address
