13Press Send.

The LaserWriter 12/640 PS is now ready to function as a print server on the NetWare network.

What to do next: The next section covers setting up the printer as a remote printer. If you want to assign a password on the server, skip to “Step 3: Assigning a Password for the Print Server (Optional).” Otherwise, skip to “Step 4: Setting Up the PostScript Printer Driver for NetWare.”

Step 2, option B: Setting up the printer as a remote printer (RPRINTER mode)

To configure your printer as a remote printer, you must use PCONSOLE to specify the print server that will provide service to your printer, create a print queue (if necessary), and associate a print queue with the print server. You must also use the Apple LaserWriter Utility to set up the printer as a remote printer.

IMPORTANT The procedures in this section are specific for a version of PCONSOLE running under NetWare 4.02. If you are running PCONSOLE under NetWare 4.1 or NetWare 3.x, the menus and commands will differ slightly.
