Initial Novell NetWare setup

NetWare 4.1 introduces the concept of a hierarchical tree database, called
NetWare Directory Services (NDS). NDS is different from the flat file
database called the “Bindery” used in earlier versions of NetWare. The
printer does not support NDS. A NetWare command, SET BINDERY
CONTEXT, allows a single level of the NDS directory tree to be specified as
a virtual Bindery location. Each time you use the NetWare 4.1 file server, set
the file server’s bindery context by typing SET BINDERY CONTEXT at the
console prompt.

The superuser account name also changes with NetWare 4.xx to Admin from
NetWare 3.xx’s name of Supervisor. The Supervisor account still exists in
NetWare 4.xx for backward compatibility, but it can’t actually be seen in the
NDS directory tree. The Admin account gives you full access to the entire
NetWare Directory Services tree. The Supervisor account will only let you
see objects that are in its bindery context location in the tree. When following
the steps below for setting up your printer on NetWare 4.1 as PSERVER,
always use the NetWare Admin account.

Make sure that the NetWare network is set up and operating according to the
instructions in the Novell NetWare documentation.

You should have access to the NetWare Printer Console utility, PCONSOLE,
on the computer from which you will be setting up the printer and have the
administrative privileges necessary to make changes to the network.

IMPORTANT

The printer is a PostScript printer only. If you are using

NetWare 4.x, use PostScript banner pages only. If you use another type of
banner page, the banner will not print. Do not user banner pages at all with
NetWare 3.x. If you do, the banner and the print job will not print.
