Instructions for Using NetWare

Printing a text file

When you print a text file using the NPRINT command of NetWare or DOS, redirection, misconversion or a gap in characters may occur depending on the client environment.

IPX routing protocol “NLSP”

It is possible to set the IPX routing protocol “NLSP” from NetWare 4.x or later; however, the print server does not support NLSP. RIP/SAP controls the communication.

You can select the routing protocol from a) NLSP with RIP/SAP Compatibility, or b) RIP/SAP Only. If you remove the bind of RIP or SAP when NLSP with RIP/SAP Compatibility is specified, the print server then cannot communicate with the file server and NDS. (See “Protocols” and “Bindings” in NetWare’s INETCFG utility.)

Bindery and NDS

❏You can check the bindery context path from the server console by using the SET BINDERY CONTEXT command.

❏If the bindery context path has not been set, or if you want to use the printing environment of another context from a non-NDS client, you need to specify the context for the bindery context. Use the SET BINDERY CONTEXT command to set the context in the AUTOEXEC.NCF file.

❏You cannot use the bindery print server mode with EpsonNet WinAssist if you are running Novell Client for Windows 95/98 version 3.00 or Novell Client for Windows NT version 4.50. To configure the print server for bindery mode, use Novell IntranetWare Client or EpsonNet WebAssist (requires a TCP/IP connection).

See your NetWare documentation for more information.
