Network Configuration 60

Novell NetWare 61

The printer supports the Novell NetWare environment.

It is necessary to have NetWare Administrator or Supervisor rights to
change the configuration. This guide is for NetWare administrators. It
should be read in conjunction with the relevant Novell NetWare
manual. The latest Novell service packs and Novell client versions
should be installed.

Supported Versions and Modes

In NDS, the printer can be configured to work in either print server
mode or remote printer mode.

Remote Printer Mode

Remote Printer Mode requires a connection to be made to a
workstation running Pserver. Print jobs are received from the file
server via the NetWare print server. The network interface card
emulates the workstation on which the NetWare Rprinter operates.
Remote Printer Mode adds additional traffic to the network and is
slower than Print Server Mode but does not require any additional
licences.

Print Server Mode (Recommended)

In Print Server Mode, the file server is logged in and the printer queue
is repeatedly polled to determine whether a print job exists. The
NetWare print server or workstation where Pserver runs is emulated.
This enables high speed printing without applying a load to the
network. Print Server Mode requires a single user NetWare licence.

The printer’s configuration page reports information that is required
for NetWare configuration. To print a configuration page, while the
printer is switched on, depress the NIC’s push-button for three
seconds and then release.

The information that you require is the printer’s Ethernet address. The
first six characters of the Ethernet address are the same for all
network interfaces. The last six characters of the Ethernet address are
unique to each card

This is all the information that is required to setup the printer for
NetWare.

Use NWAdmin32 or the Pconsole utility to create and setup NetWare
printer objects. Please refer to Novell documentation for instructions
on how to achieve this.

Use the Network Card Setup Utility (AdminManager) or other printer
manager software, (Web browser, JetAdmin, etc.) to configure the
network interface card. For instructions please refer to the
Configuration Utility section and online help. Below is the NetWare
configuration page from AdminManager.
