Novell NetWare
Configuring for Queue Server Mode using PCONSOLE and XConfig
The following steps describe how to use the standard Novell PCONSOLE utility with XCONFIG to set up your print queues.
PConsole
1.Log in as Supervisor for Netware 3.xx or as ADMIN for NetWare 4.xx. Make sure that you specify the /b option for bindery mode.
2.Run the PCONSOLE utility from your PC workstation.
3.Select Print Servers from the available Options menu.
4.To create a new print server, enter the NIC Netware service name. The default name is KOD_xxxxxx. The xxxxxx is the last 6 digits of the Ethernet address. Press ENTER.
5.Create a new queue on the file server. Enter the new queue name, and press ENTER.
NOTE: The name does not need to be related to the name of the NIC print server resources, but it should be short and convenient for users to remember.
6.Configure the queue by selecting Print or Queue Servers and specify which network print servers can print jobs from this print queue.
7.Select the NIC NetWare service name to add it to the list.
8.Exit PCONSOLE.
9.To force the NIC to rescan the file servers for print jobs, turn the printer off and then on.
NOTE: You may also use the XConfig command SET NETWARE RESCAN to force the NIC to rescan for file servers.
