I have a few of the 4317s attached on a T/R network to at least two
different 400s at
V3R7 and/or V3R1. We have to reset the printers fairly regularly. We
can either power them off/on 
or use a Network monitoring program that will do the same thing.

They are still better that our old 3812s, but they require alot more
attention.
