Although I work for Oce, we use a lot of the KM color mfps. Normally with any IBM so far, it accepts any print jobs received.

AS-400s have limited printers choices, so I usually as the IBM server tech to use a HP5si or HP8000 print driver, set the outque to the IP address of the MFP.

You don't get the advanced features of the MFP with this method but it will print out.

There are other methods, but I have a few 60 ppm KonicaMinoltas printing with the above method.
