Using a Printer Server

If you cannot identify the print- er you want to configure, check the printer name with the con- figuration page printed from the printer. For details about printing a configuration page, see Printer Reference.

If no printer names appear in the list, match the frame types of IPX/SPXs for the computer

and printer. Use the [Network]

3 dialog box of Windows to change the frame type of the computer.

Reference

When using the printer in a pure IP environment of Net- Ware 5/5.1 or NetWare 6.0, see p.62 “Using Pure IP in the Net- Ware 5/5.1 or 6/6.5 Environment ”.
