Chapter 10 Novell Host Configuration
NetWare Version 3.x RPRINTER Setup
These steps are for Novell environments with Netware 3.x (or earlier) file
servers.
To configure a new RPRINTER on a NetWare 3.x network:
1. Log in to the LineJet Print Server command shell, npsh, as root.
If you have TCP/IP available and this print server already has an IP
address stored within it, you can use the built-in HTML configuration
forms or a Telnet session. Please see “Configuration Alternatives” on
page 64 for additional details. If you have only Novell available, you will
need to use a PC, laptop, or terminal.
2. Store the RPRINTER settings on the LineJet Print Server. This will refer
to an existing PSERVER.NLM on the file server or to one that you will
create later in these steps.
Syntax:
store rprinter add
PSERVERname printernumber
LineJetdestination
Example for an RPRINTER servicing printer 0 of the PSERVER.NLM
called
pserver1
and sending jobs to the LineJet Print Server
destination d1prn:
store rprinter add pserver1 0
d1prn
3. Leave this LineJet Print Server login session and log on to the NetWare
3.x file server as Supervisor.
4. Load a PSERVER.NLM if there is not one loaded already. This will be the
PSERVER that the LineJet Print Server services as an RPRINTER so it
must match the PSERVER name given in step 2.
5. Enter PCONSOLE.
6. Select “Print Queue Information” from the PCONSOLE Main Menu.
7. Press INSERT to add a new queue to the list of currently defined queues.
8. Type in the name of this new queue when prompted and press ENTER.
This can be any name you would like.
9. Press ESCAPE to return to the Main Menu.
10. Select “Print Server Information” and press ENTER.
11. Press INSERT when the list of existing print servers displays.
12. Select the print server that you want the Print Server to service as an
RPRINTER. This is the PSERVER.NLM loaded in step 4.
13. Select “Print Server Configuration” from the menu that displays.
Note If you use HTML configuration, you will need to go to the Network
Configuration HTML form
http://
LineJetIPaddress
/
networkConf.html
(e.g., http://192.75.11.9/
networkConf.html
) and look under the “Novell” section. The settings
in the following step are found there. If using a Telnet session, you will
need to manually execute the commands listed in the next step.
