ColorPASS on a NetWare 3.x or 4.x network

There is no need to rerun Setup when adding or removing a NetWare queue; however
you should reboot the ColorPASS after a queue is created or removed.

When the ColorPASS is configured to connect to a NetWare server, it polls the
NetWare server for jobs in each of its queues. If jobs are found, they are automatically
transferred over the network to the matching connection on the ColorPASS. For
example, jobs from the NetWare queue with the

_print

extension are sent to the

ColorPASS Print queue, and so on. While a job is processed and printed, a record of
the job is being created. You can access the Job Log containing these records at any
time.

Configuring a NetWare 3.x or 4.x server for printing

The following sections explain how to set up a NetWare file server so that networked
users can print to the ColorPASS from their workstations, and the ColorPASS can
obtain print jobs from the NetWare server.

For each NetWare file server that you configure, follow these general steps. More detail
is provided in subsequent sections and in your NetWare documentation.

• Make sure the server is connected to a functioning IPX network.

• Log in as the Supervisor on a PC connected to the NetWare file server.

• For NetWare 4.x installations, set up an NDS connection (see page 5-9).

• For NetWare 4.x in emulation mode, set the bindery context (see page 5-9).

• For NetWare 3.x and for NetWare 4.x in bindery emulation, set up a file server,

a print server, and a print queue for the ColorPASS (see page 5-10).

With bindery services, you can route all ColorPASS print jobs through the same
NetWare file server, or you can configure more than one file server to handle
ColorPASS jobs.

The functions you perform on the Novell server, on the ColorPASS, and on the client
workstation, are summarized in the following tables. The first table applies to NDS
connections, the second to bindery connections. Complete the operations in the left
column, then the center column, then the right column.
