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.

See your NetWare documentation for more information.
