NDPS Configuration (Netware 4.11 and Above)
213
Setup using Forward Jobs to a Queue Mode
In this mode, an NDPS printer agent receives jobs from an NDPS
client, then forwards these jobs to an existing Netware queue. The
Netware queue would then be serviced by the printer in some
manner.
1. The IBM printer must first be set up to service some Netware
queue, either by doing a PSERVER or RPRINTER mode setup
from previous chapters.
2. When setting up the NDPS printer agent, use the “Novell
Printer Gateway”.
3. For the “Novell PDS”, choose “((NONE))”.
4. For the “Port Handler”, choose “Forward Jobs to a Queue”,
then choose the queue used in step 1 above, and note the
Caution statement about the Queue User Name.
5. For the “Select Printer Drivers” dialog, choose no driver unless
you have a driver installed into the Broker's RMS which is to be
used with the printer.
Any jobs sent to this printer agent will then be forwarded to the
specified queue.
Setup using LPR Mode
In this mode, an NDPS printer agent receives jobs from an NDPS
client, then forwards these jobs to a printer using the LPR protocol.
1. The printer must first be set up with IP connectivity and be able
to receive jobs using the LPR protocol.
2. When setting up the NDPS printer agent, use the “Novell
Printer Gateway”.
3. For the “Novell PDS”, choose “((NONE))”.
4. For the “Port Handler”, choose “Remote (LPR on IP)”, then
enter the hostname/ipaddress and printer name
(d1prn – d8prn by default) in the next dialog.
NOTE: When the IPDS feature is installed, queue name d4prn is
not available.
