Section 2 - Chapter 5 - Additional Management Features

OkiNet for NDS

OkiNet for NDS allows administrators to create and manage OKI print server objects in the NDS tree. OkiNet for NDS integrates into Novell’s NetWare Administrator, NetWareAdmin. For more information, see OkiNet for NDS under NetWare in this manual.

OkiNet for TCP/IP (Creating Custom Views)

OkiNet for TCP/IP allows discovery on a pure TCP/IP Windows environment. To assign a TCP/IP address assignment, simply select Discover Unconfigured Device and double-click. To create multiple views and customize the viewing environment, specify devices and define Filters, Sorts, Columns, Search Information and Refresh rates. For more information about OkiNet for TCP/IP, see Creating Custom Views under the TCP/IP section of this manual.

NetWare Load Balancing

Using this feature, administrators can distribute the print load among several print servers. Simply assign the queue to the desired print ports on the selected print servers.

Windows Printing

From a Windows operating system, using TCP/IP or DLC protocols, the OkiNet Connect utility routes the print job to the appropriate printer without passing through a file server or print queue. This cuts down on network printing traffic. For more information, see the Windows Printing section of this manual.

Printer Security for TCP/IP Printing

The OkiLAN 6120e print server has a Printer Security for TCP/IP Printing feature which allows the printers to only be accessed from a specified list of IP addresses. This feature is accessed via TELNET option #9, TCP Connection Configuration.
