7.Repeat steps 4 through 6 for each additional printer you would like to have serviced.

8.Click SUBMIT when done and physically repower the printer to make the new settings take effect.

Manual (Telnet) Method

1.Load a PSERVER on your Netware 3.x, Netware 4.x, or Netware 5.x file server (i.e., issue a load pserver pservername command on the file server).

NOTE: If it is an NDS PSERVER on a Netware 4.x/5.x file server, you must specify the pserver name and context for pservername. For example:

load pserver .sales_ps.sales.printronix

2.Telnet to the print server: telnet ipaddress

NOTE: If prompted for a User ID and password, type in root for the ID and press ENTER at the password prompt (since there is no password by default).

3.You should see a prompt with the NIC’s IP address: ipaddress:root>

4.At the prompt, store the RPRINTER settings on the NIC. The pservername refers to the existing PSERVER.NLM on the file server created in step 1.

Syntax:

store rprinter add pservername printernumber NICdestination

An example of 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

NOTE: If it is an NDS pserver, enter only the PSERVER name and not the context (e.g., sales_ps).

5.Physically repower the printer to make the new settings take effect.
