Printing after Resetting the Printer
After resetting the remote printer, the printer will be cut off from the print server for about 30-40
seconds before connecting again. Due to NetWare specification, print jobs may be accepted, but
they will not be printed during this time. When using the printer as a remote printer, wait about two
minutes after resetting the printer before attempting to print.
When Using DHCP
The following points are important when using DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol).
Supported Systems
Windows NT Server 4.0 can be configured as a DHCP server.
