5. Use the Add Printer Wizard on your work station to install the printer on

your client. Note that only NDS queue based PSERVER printing is supported. When installing, choose Network Printer and browse to the queue you have just created. Alternatively, choose Local Printer and select the queue you

have just captured.

	Any configuration and management of the Axis Network Print Server can
	be performed from any standard Web browser. Please refer to “Using a
	Web browser for Print Server Management” on page 88.
	If both the IPX and IP protocols are enabled in your network and the print
	server uses DUAL_STACK (enabled by default) as its network transport
	protocol, then IPX will be chosen. To force the print server to use the IP
	transport protocol, go to your print server’s Web interface and choose
	Admin Detailed View NetWare and change the NetWare Transport
	Protocol from DUAL_STACK to IP_ONLY. Save and exit when finished.
Note:
	Pure IP requires that you run NetWare 5 or higher.
Queue-based Printing
	The following overview explains the advantages and limitations of the
Methods	two supported queue-based printing methods.
Print Server Mode	The Axis Network Print Server logs in to a file server(s) and repeatedly
	polls the print queues for print jobs. In this fashion, the Axis Network
	Print Server emulates a NetWare print server, which is a workstation
	running PSERVER. It provides high printing speed with low network load
	and is the recommended mode for medium to large sized networks. Each
	print server in PSERVER mode takes one NetWare user license.
Advantages	• High performance: up to 1 Mbyte/s
Limitations	• In bindery mode, this printing method requires a NetWare user licence
	for each Axis Network Print Server to file server link.
Remote Printer Mode	The Axis Network Print Server acts as Remote Printer for PSERVER.NLM
	running on the NetWare file server, or to a dedicated workstation running
	PSERVER.EXE. In this fashion, the Axis Network Print Server emulates a
	workstation running the NetWare remote printer software RPRINTER, or
	NPRINTER. This mode is only recommended for small networks where the
	number of NetWare user licences is a major issue.
Advantages	• NetWare user licences are not required.
Limitations	• Lower performance, typically 20 - 70 kbytes/s for NLM and higher
	network load.
