HP2100 print quality from AS/400 poor

["Mark A. Manske" <mmanske@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

wondering if anyone else has tried this laser printer; we have it through
our network only so just straight IP -
it does not seem to matter how I config the printer on the AS/400, the fonts
are small, or "normal" but scrunched -
I was really hoping to avoid going to the "blue-kit" solution for IPDS/AFP
but as of yet I see no alternative ;

Does anyone know of a way around this limitation, the HP only has the
Ethernet card in it (paid roughly $950, and the
company wants more than that for a IPDS/AFP "chip", what a racket.... ehh...

TIA for any thoughts or directions you can point me towards (looked at
onepoint, but could not get the AS/400 to do anything with it; couple other
"PC" solutions would not install or worked only for the PC world, I need to
send through IP a IPDS/AFP data stream and it just works...
