Setup using NDPS

The AXIS 540+/AXIS 560 supports Novell Distributed Print Services (NDPS). You
can run NDPS over Pure IP (TCP/IP) or IPX/SPX.

Before the AXIS 540+/AXIS 560 can be installed, make sure that NDPS is
installed and a Broker is loaded on your NetWare file server.

Axis Network Print Server uses the AXIS NDPS Gateway for printing in networks
using either IP or IPX as transport protocols. The printer gateways are included
with the NDPS software (from version 5.1 and up) and are automatically
installed together with NDPS.

Having assigned an IP address to the AXIS 540+/AXIS 560 as described in
Assign an IP Address to the Print Server, on page 13, you are now ready to install

the Axis Network Print Server for NDPS printing. You can select to install the
connected printers as public or controlled access printers. Follow the
instructions below to install the Axis Network Print Server using NDPS:

Important:

NDPS requires that you run NetWare 4.11 or higher. Pure IP is only supported by NetWare 5 or

higher.

• The NDPS Enabled parameter of the Axis Network Print Server must be set to Yes in order for

the communication between the print server and the NDPS gateway to be enabled. To change
this parameter, log in to the print server’s web pages and choose: Admin => Network Set-
tings=> Detailed View=> NetWare=> NDPS Enabled => Yes.

• If you do not have an NDPS Manager object available, start out with creating one in the Net-

Ware Administrator.
