Apple 12/640PS manual Chapter

Completing the PSERVER configuration with the Apple LaserWriter Utility

1Start Windows, if it’s not already running.

2Open the Apple LaserWriter Software program group and double-click the Apple LaserWriter Utility icon.

3Select your printer.

4Select Print Server Configuration from the Network menu.

5Select the printer you want to configure.

You can identify the printer from the NetWare printer name that is printed on the printer’s startup page.

IMPORTANT After the printer is turned on, it advertises itself on the NetWare network for 5 minutes only to reduce network traffic. If you don’t see your printer’s name in the list of printers, turn the printer off and back on. Make sure the NetWare file server is running and verify that the NetWare file server and the printer are using the same Ethernet frame type. If the Ethernet frame types do not match, see “Connecting to a Network Printer Manually,” later in this chapter. See also “Novell NetWare Troubleshooting” in Chapter 13.

6Select the LaserWriter 12/640 PS printer you want, then click Configure.

7Enter the PSERVER name (the same printer name you used in PCONSOLE, if you are not using the default name).

The default PSERVER name is the same as the default NetWare printer name.

8Enter the same NetWare password that you entered with PCONSOLE.

9Enter the names of file servers that the printer will service.

10Press Add.

11Press OK.

12Enter the queue scan time.

The queue scan time is the number of milliseconds that the printer will wait before checking each file server that it can access.
