10. Type in the name for the printer in the “Printer name” field.

Note	The Printer object name must match one of the destination names on the
	LineJet Print Server. Most likely, this will be d1prn.

In NDS, a printer object can only be attached to one print server object at a given time, as Novell is using the printer object to represent a physical printer. A physical printer can only be attached to one parallel or serial port at a time. Thus, if you assign a printer object to another print server object, the new print server object will “steal” it from the old one (this also happens with non- LineJet Print Server print server objects).

In order to properly process print jobs sent to the LineJet Print Server, the printer object created in Novell must refer to the destination on this server and not to the actual physical printer. On the LineJet Print Server, print jobs must pass through an extra layer (a “destination”) before being sent on to the printer. This destination allows for further processing of the print job before sending it to the printer.

If you are using multiple print servers, you will have to either rename all your destinations to ensure that no printer object names conflict or keep all the printer objects for one print server in a different context than those for the other print server.

11.Select “Define additional properties” and click on “Create.”

12.Click on “Assignments” in the dialogue that pops up, and then on the “Add...” button.

13.Select the queue you defined earlier, or browse for a different one.

14.Click on “OK” to assign this queue to this printer.

15.Click on “OK” to close the Printers details dialogue and make the changes permanent.

16.Click on a branch in the tree (i.e., context) that you would like to create the LineJet Print Server print server object in.

Note	If the context you choose is different than the one the file server object for
	the file server you are using is in, you must set the context on the LineJet
	Print Server. See “Setting The LineJet Print Server Context (NDS)” on
	page 204.

17.Click with the right mouse button to bring up a submenu, and choose “Create...” from this menu.

18.A dialogue titled “New Object” will pop up. In the “Class of new object” list, select “Print Server” and click on “OK.”

19.Type in the name for the print server in the “Print Server name” field. By default, the name is M_xxxxxx where xxxxxx equals the last six digits
