132 Settings for NetWare Server
About modes
You can choose either the Print Server, Remote Printer, or Standby
mode. We recommend that you use the Print Server mode unless
the number of users exceeds the limit.
Features of these modes are described below.
Print Server mode (NDS/Bindery Print Server):
❏High-speed printing with direct printing
❏Uses the NetWare user account
❏Can connect up to 8 file servers simultaneously
❏Can register up to 32 print queues
Remote Printer mode:
❏A NetWare user account is not required.
❏A print server is needed to control the remote printer.
❏Can attach up to 16 printers for NetWare 3.x, and up to
255 for NetWare 4.x or later.
Note:
When you turn on the printer, the user account is temporarily
accessed in the Remote Printer mode. If there is no user account
available, turn on the printer before connecting the client to the
network.
Standby mode (factory default mode):
The Standby mode is the default mode. This mode disables
all NetWare related functions. Use the Standby mode when
you are not using the print server in a NetWare environment.
