Chapter 7 Novell Host Configuration (10/100Base-T)

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 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.Select ((NONE)) for Novell PDS.

4.Select Forward Jobs to a Queue for Port Handler, then choose the queue used in step 1 above, and note the Caution statement about the Queue User Name.

5.Select no driver in the Select Printer Drivers dialog, 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.Use Novelle Printer Gateway when setting up the NDPS printer agent.

3.Select ((NONE)) for Novell PDS.

4.Select Remote (LPR on IP) for Port Handler, 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.
