Queue-based printing

1Press the operator panel button with a brief button press to print a network settings page.

Look under the NetWare heading on the network setup page to see if the NetWare protocol is turned on (activated) in the print server.

If NetWare is turned off, use the IPX protocol to activate it. Select the printer and then select the NetWare task. Check the Enable box to activate NetWare.

2Find out if the print server is servicing your NetWare queue. Use one of the utilities and look for your queue in the list of queues being serviced. In the Network Printer Utility for NetWare, select Options, and then Queues Serviced.

3If your queue doesn’t appear in the list of queues being serviced, reset the printer, wait a few minutes, and look for the queue in the list again.

4If your queue still does not appear in the list of queues being serviced, you have a print server setup problem. Reconfigure the MarkNet print server.

5Try printing from some other application. If the job prints from the second application, you’ve narrowed the problem to the first application. Make sure you are using the current version of the driver for the problem application.

6Place a job in the queue using a Novell utility such as PCONSOLE.

AppleTalk

Finding the default AppleTalk name

Your printer ships with a default AppleTalk name that appears in the Chooser. To find the default AppleTalk name, press the operator panel button to print a network setup page. Look under the AppleTalk heading for the printer name.

Creating a desktop printer icon

Each Macintosh user on the AppleTalk network who wants to use the printer should do the following steps.

1In the Chooser, select the LaserWriter 8 driver.

2If you have a routed network, there is a list of zones you can select from. The new printer is in the default zone for the network. Select this zone. If you don’t know which zone to select, look on the network setup page under AppleTalk for Zone.

3Select the new printer. If you don’t know which printer to select, look on the network setup page under AppleTalk. The default name of the printer is listed beside Name.

4Click Create.
