IBM Printers - Compatible Impact, Laser & Network Printers

Discover reliable printer solutions compatible with IBM Power Systems, AS/400, iSeries, System i, and legacy models. These include impact printers for multi-part forms, laser printers for high-volume output, network print servers for shared printing, and console printers for operator and system reporting in AIX, IBM i, or Linux environments.

Why Choose IBM-Compatible Printers?

IBM Power and legacy AS/400/iSeries systems often require dedicated or networked printers for reports, invoices, labels, checks, and console logging. Impact printers handle continuous forms and multi-part printing, while laser printers offer fast, high-quality output. Network print servers enable Ethernet connectivity for shared access across LPARs or clients. These solutions maintain compatibility with IBM printer drivers, SCS/DSE protocols, IPDS, and AFP data streams across generations from classic AS/400 (9406 series) to Power10 servers, ensuring long-term reliability for mission-critical printing.

Available IBM-Compatible Printers & Print Solutions

  • IBM 4247 Multi-Part Impact Printer IBM 4247 series impact printer (24-pin). Prints up to 600 cps (draft), supports continuous forms, multi-part (up to 8 copies), and tractor feed. Compatible with AS/400, iSeries, and Power Systems via parallel/serial/Ethernet attachments. Ideal for high-volume reports and invoices.
  • IBM Infoprint 6400 Line Printer IBM Infoprint 6400 series line matrix printer (up to 2000 lpm). Continuous forms, multi-part support, high-duty cycle. Network-capable (Ethernet). Perfect for legacy AS/400 and Power systems requiring fast, durable printing of forms, labels, and reports.
  • IBM Infoprint 6500 Line Printer IBM Infoprint 6500 series line matrix printer (500–2000 lpm models). Supports IPDS, SCS, and Ethernet connectivity. High-reliability solution for Power Systems and iSeries environments with heavy print demands.
  • IBM Network Print Server (Ethernet Adapter) Network print server/adapter (Ethernet). Enables TCP/IP printing for legacy AS/400 and Power printers. Supports LPD, IPP, and IBM i print queues. Allows shared access across LPARs and clients on older systems.
  • IBM Console Printer Replacement (Modern Laser) Modern laser printer replacement for console/system reporting. Monochrome or color, network-capable. Compatible with Power5–Power10 and iSeries via Ethernet or direct attachment. Supports AFP/IPDS emulation where required.

Note: Printers are selected for compatibility with IBM printer protocols (SCS, IPDS, AFP, PCL). Impact/line printers excel for multi-part forms; laser printers suit modern high-quality output. Network adapters enable Ethernet connectivity on legacy systems. Verify interface (parallel/serial/Ethernet) and emulation support for your specific model.

Compatibility & Support

These printers and print solutions are compatible with IBM systems, including but not limited to older AS/400 models (9406 series, e.g., 150/170/270/500–890), early iSeries servers (e.g., 720/730/740/810/820/890), Power5–Power10 servers (p5, p6, p7, p8, p9, p10, S/I/E series), and systems using SCS, IPDS, AFP, or PCL printing.

Refer to individual product pages for exact interface types (parallel/serial/Ethernet), supported protocols/emulations, OS/print queue compatibility (AIX, IBM i/OS/400, Linux), and any required adapters/cables. All items include a 60-day limited warranty.
