NetWare Version 3.x RPRINTER Setup

2.Store the RPRINTER settings on the NIC. This will refer to an existing PSERVER.NLM on the file server or to one that you will create later in these steps.

Syntax:

store rprinter add PSERVERname printernumber NICdestination

An example for an RPRINTER servicing printer 0 of the PSERVER.NLM called pserver1 and sending jobs to the NIC destination d1prn is:

store rprinter add pserver1 0 d1prn

3.Leave this NIC login session and log on to the NetWare 3.x file server as “Supervisor.”

4.Load a PSERVER.NLM if one is not already loaded. This will be the PSERVER that the NIC services as an RPRINTER, so it must match the PSERVER name given in step 2.

5.Enter PCONSOLE.

6.Select Print Queue Information from the PCONSOLE Main Menu.

7.Click Insert to add a new queue to the list of currently defined queues.

8.Type in the name of this new queue when prompted, and press ENTER. This can be any name you would like.

9.Click Escape to return to the Main Menu.

10.Select Print Server Information and press ENTER.

11.Click Insert when the list of existing print servers displays.

12.Select the print server that you want the NIC to service as an RPRINTER. This is the PSERVER.NLM loaded in step 4.

13.Select Print Server Configuration from the menu that displays.

14.Select Printer Configuration from the next menu to display a list of configured printers.

15.Select an item from the list (e.g., an existing printer name or “Not Installed”) to display the printer configuration window.
