22-10 Setting up Network Servers

You do not need to rerun Setup when you add or remove a NetWare queue; however, you should restart the GA-1120 after you create or remove a queue.

When the GA-1120 is configured to connect to a NetWare server, it polls the NetWare server for jobs in each of its queues. If jobs are found, they are automatically transferred over the network to the matching connection on the GA-1120. For example, jobs from the NetWare queue with the _print extension are sent to the GA-1120 Print queue.

While a job is processed and printed, a record of the job is being created. You can access the Job Log containing these records at any time.

Configuring a NetWare 4.x server for printing

The following sections explain how to set up a NetWare file server so networked users can print to the GA-1120 from their workstations, and the GA-1120 can obtain print jobs from the NetWare server.

For each NetWare file server that you configure, follow these general steps. More detail is provided in subsequent sections and in your NetWare documentation.

Make sure the server is connected to a functioning IPX network.

Log in as the Supervisor on a PC connected to the NetWare file server.

For NetWare 4.x installations, set up an NDS connection (see page 2-12).

For NetWare 4.x in emulation mode, set the bindery context (see page 2-12).

For NetWare 3.x and for NetWare 4.x in bindery emulation, set up a file server, print server, and print queue for the GA-1120 (see page 2-13).

With bindery services, you can route all GA-1120 print jobs through the same NetWare file server, or you can configure more than one file server to handle GA-1120 jobs.

The functions you perform on the Novell server, the GA-1120, and the client workstation are summarized in the following tables. The first table applies to NDS connections, and the second to bindery connections. Complete the operations in the left column, then the center column, then the right column.
