Konica 7020 all in one - anyone have it working?

My friend's brother is trying to get this all in one working in linux.
Does anyone have any experience with this particular printer?

Konica 7020
IP 421 card in it

Thanks.

I have a 7030 with the ip421 and no luck so far. Anybody with some ideas? I can install it using the CUPS web admin, but when I print to it, I just get garbage. And I am using the supplied ppd file for the ip421.

Okay, I got it figured out. It's actually quite easy. Just install and configure cups like normal + foomatic. Then go the the webinterace (localhost:631) and add printer and select:

Device: AppSocket/HPJetDirect
Device URI: socket://printerIPaddress:9100
Make: Generic
Model: Generic PCL 6/PCL XL Printer Foomatic/ljet4(en)

After adding the printer you might have to go to configure and select 600 resolution. One computer got that just fine but another had 75 dpi by default.
