Configuring Konica Minolta - iSeries devices

Requirements

  • Latest firmware is installed on MFD (or at least a minimum version mentioned in HCL – Konica Minolta).

  • MFD is OpenAPI 3.5 or higher if embedded accounting / application shortcuts / web browser terminal functionality is required. Models that support OpenAPI 3.5 or higher may need HDD and/or additional memory installed (for more details see HCL – Konica Minolta).

  • MFD is accessible from Spooler Controller subnet. IP Filtering of the Konica Minolta iSeries has to be adjusted if MFD and SPOCs are in different subnets. The Quick IP Filtering setting (Administration > Network > TCP/IP Setting > Quick Ip Filtering) is enabled by default, allowing only connections from the MFDs subnet.
