Searching the http://www.xerox.com site is surprisingly helpful.

In one of our remote locations somebody bought a Document Center 432 to
replace a HP 5si without asking anyone.  My Sys Admin was on leave, and
since the managerial lobotomy I don't know how to do anything outside of
Microsoft Outlook.  I went to the Xerox site, keyed 432 AS/400 into the
search box, and thought "yeah, right" as I clicked the search button.  The
Xerox support site had a document specific to that task.  I was able to
create a device description, vary it on, start the writer, release a test
spool file, and call a user to see that it worked.  This was on a printer
I've never seen -- it's in Florida and I'm in Nashville.

A search containing "DC265" and "AS/400" produced links including.

I'm gonna start using this Internet thing for everything.
