NetWare Version 4.x and 5.x RPRINTER Setup

NIC can be configured to service both RPRINTER, NDS mode, and PSERVER, bindery mode.

Use the following procedure to set up an RPRINTER form of attachment on a

4.x or 5.x server:

1.NIC requires a bindery server login on the 4.x or 5.x as the first step to servicing RPRINTER. This bindery login is necessary for registering the NIC PSERVER name; no bindery queues or printers are set up. Using PCONSOLE, bindery mode, create a bindery printer server object whose name matches that of the NIC at the root context of the 4.x or 5.x box (i.e., M_03092B). After creating the bindery PrintServer on the 4.x or 5.x server, reboot NIC and use the debug Novell pserver command via

aTelnet or npsh session, or print the E-Net Test Page out to make sure there is a successful server login.

2.Using either PCONSOLE in NDS mode, or NWADMIN:

a.create an NDS queue (any name you want), or simply use an existing one;

b.create a print server to use (any valid name, or choose one already in existence);
