​I know I've printed to an IPDS 6400 from Windows...but I don't recall the
details...

However, have you printed a barcode from the i to the printer as a test?
The speed left a lot to be desired...

I'm trying to see if we can print to our 6400 from Windows or Linux. I
see a number of products that go the other way around - intercepting IPDS
from the IBM i and printing to non-IPDS printers.

Does anyone know of an IPDS driver for Windows or Linux (RHEL)? We are
looking to print barcoded invoices.

Tried adding the 6400 in Win 7 Enterprise but Windows could not see the
printer (although I can ping it). It may be an older 6400 attached by a
twin-ax brick - I'm waiting on an answer to that.

Thanks.
