Printronix P5000LJ user manual Changing The Print Server Mode NDS & Bindery

Chapter 12 Novell NIC Configuration (10/100Base-T)

Changing The Print Server Mode (NDS & Bindery)

The NIC allows the user to store a particular mode for the unit to operate in. This will be either NDS, Bindery, or autosense. If autosense is used, the NIC will first attempt to log in to a NDS file server, and, if it fails, it will try to log in to a Bindery file server.

Note	If you are using both NDS and Bindery file servers in your setup, make
	sure the mode is set to auto.

HTML Method

1.Load a Web browser on a network station that can communicate with the print server over TCP/IP.

2.Direct your Web browser to URL:

http://P5000LJIPaddress/networkConf.html (e.g., http://192.75.11.9/networkConf.html)

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

3.Look under the “Novell” section and go to the “Service Type” field to select the appropriate mode.

4.Click on the SUBMIT button when done and physically re-power the printer to make the new settings take effect.

Manual (Telnet) Method

1.Telnet to the print server. This will bring up a login screen: telnet ipaddress

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

2.You should now see a prompt displayed that has the NIC’s IP address followed by a colon then root.

ipaddress:root>

3.At the prompt, enter:

store pserver novell mode [nds bindery auto]

4.Reset the unit to make the changes take effect. reset
