Setup using NDPS

The AXIS 5900 supports Novell Distributed Print Services (NDPS). You

can run NDPS over Pure IP (TCP/IP) or IPX/SPX.

Before the AXIS 5900 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.

Installing the Axis

Network Print Server

in the NDPS

Environments

Having assigned an IP address to the AXIS 5900 as described in Assigning

an IP Address to the Print Server, on page 16, 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:

• The NDPS Enabled parameter of the Axis Network Print Server is by default enabled. It 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 Settings | 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.
