bindery emulation based operations. The Print Server must be configured on
the preferred file server. Incorrect setup of a Preferred File Server can
interfere with NetWare printing.
6. If the Print Server is to be operated under Novell Directory Services, type in
a Context entry and Preferred NDS Tree entry in the appropriate fields. Be
sure to give the whole context, whether typed or typeless, and do not begin
your context path with a trailing period (.). If you don't know your tree, type:
whoami at the DOS command line. Atyped context name example is:
ou=standard.ou=organization_1
7. In the default mode, the Print Server scans each queue which it is to service
once per second. If you prefer a longer scan rate, you may enter the time
between scans in seconds in the Print Queue Scan Rate field.
8. The Print Server Card will normally monitor the network to determine which
frame type is being used for Novell. When it recognizes a type, it will
assume the same frame type. Once it selects a frame type, the Print Server
Card will only operate over that Novell frame type. Monitoring normally starts
looking for IEEE 802.3, then Ethernet II, then 802.3 SNAP, etc. If your
network is using multiple frame types for Novell, you should bias the frame
search to the desired type by setting the button next to the designation under
Ethernet Frame Type.
9. You can Disable Bindery mode on the Print Server if the printer is to be used
in NDS mode only. To do so, click on the Disable Bindery Mode box. If you
disable Bindery, the Print Server Card will not support Print Servers on a
Bindery file server.
10.Once you have selected all desired settings and entered the desired
NetWare information, you may cause this information to be entered in the
printer by clicking on Accept Settings. As with all value changes, you must
enter the WebAdmin password in the appropriate space before clicking on
Accept Settings. The default WebAdmin password as shipped is “sysadm.”
11.Entered values do not take effect until the printer is reset or power cycled.
You may reset from WebAdmin by returning to the Network page and
clicking on Reset under System. Now click on Reset Unit. Alternatively, you
may power cycle the printer. The new NetWare values should now be in
effect.
