    Konica c450 / IC-402 Fiery with Windows 8

    Currently in the process of an office upgrade from Win 7 64-bit to Win 8.1 (64-bit). It appears there are no current/valid drivers for the Bizhub c450 with Fiery (IC-402) for Windows 8. Has anyone identified a workaround?

    Universal and best available drivers seem to provide partial functionality, but control over the bypass tray appears to be gone (despite the print preferences allowing one to select/change it, it is not accessible).

    I found this thread, but am not a member there and was unable to create a registration today (issue with the Captcha server) - this guy appears to have found a work around 1.5 years ago, but it's not clear to me what he did:
    Windows 8 drivers?

    Anyone have any suggestions? I find it unfortunate that we are regularly scrapping functional equipment based solely on its age...

    I dunno about specific drivers for that machine, but you can install windows xp mode from here...
    Its a little bit of a pain to have to start it and stuff, but I use it at work for an old HP LaserJet and an ancient scanner.

    Hope that help a little bit.
