6-15

Where nlm is the name of the PSERVER NLM on your file server

Number is the printer number (must match the printer number you selected during

the PCONSOLE configuration in the previous steps)

Service is the name of the service assigned by Netware print server name(where the

default services are BRN_xxxxxx_P1 for the Brother printer, where "xxxxxx is the
last six digits of the Ethernet address (MAC address)).

For example, to set up remote “Printer 3” for an Brother printer with the print server
BRN_310107_P1 using the PSERVER NLM called BROTHER1PS, you would type:

SET NETWARE NPRINTER BROTHER1PS 3 ON BRN_310107_P1
SET NETWARE RESCAN
EXIT

You can also enter the remote printer name using your web browser by connecting

to the Brother print server using the TCP/IP protocol and selecting the Netware
protocol configuration.

Note
The same services assigned by Netware print server name cannot be used for both queue
server mode and remote printer mode.

You must now unload the PSERVER NLM from your NetWare file server console and
then reload it in order for the changes to take effect.

Testing the Print Queue

You can test the queue by using the NetWare DOS nprint command:

C:> nprint c:\autoexec.bat q=queuename

where queuename is one of the print queues you created earlier in this chapter. The file will be
spooled to the print server for printing and should print on the printer within a short period of
time. If it does not, double check your configuration, and if necessary, refer to
Troubleshooting information.
