That is the setup we have.
I just tried it and it worked.

Subject: Can LTO ULTRIUM5 tapes be initialized to *ULTRIUM4 on an 8202-E4C POWER7?
Do you have a POWER7 8202-E4C with the integrated single-unit tape unit that is LTO Ultrium5?
Can you run this test for me?
Insert one of your Ultrium5 tapes.
Try to INZTAP with parm DENSITY(*ULTRIUM4) instead of *DEVTYPE.
Does it allow you to initialize your LTO Ultrium5 tape to *ULTRIUM4?
I will soon need to purchase a bunch of new tapes and have yet not decided whether to purchase Ultrium5 or Ultrium4.
I am able to continue using our old Ultrium4 tapes because I changed
INZTAP command default from *DEVTYPE to *ULTRIUM4. (We were
previously on a 8203 POWER6 machine)
Tape capacity is not much of a consideration because we need only one
Ultrium4 tapes for a full backup.
