5-2 Novell Network Configuration
Generally speaking, it is recommended that you use queue server mode instead of
remote printer mode because the performance will be much higher. The exception
to this recommendation is if there is a limited number of available user slots (for
example, if you have a 5-user NetWare license and you have five active users).
Monarch print servers will work with NetWare Directory Services (NDS) or bindery
emulation mode on NetWare 4.xx and later networks.
G e n e r a l I n f o r m a t i o n
In order to use the print server on a NetWare network, one or more file servers
must be configured with a print queue that the print server can service. Users send
their print requests to the file server’s print queue, and the jobs are then spooled
(either directly, or in the case or remote printer mode, via an intermediate print
server) to the print server.
Monarch print servers can be configured under Windows using Hewlett-Packard's
JetAdmin utility or XCD's XAdmin32 and XAdmin utilities. Alternatively, they can
be configured using the NetWare PCONSOLE utility in conjunction with the DOS
XCONFIG utility.
B e f o r e Y o u B e g i n
Before you can configure a NetWare print queue, you must have sufficient
privileges. With NetWare 3.xx and earlier, you MUST be logged in as
SUPERVISOR (not someone with Supervisor privileges). With NetWare 4.xx and
later, make sure that you have sufficient administrator privileges to create a print
queue in the desired context.
D e f a u l t P r i n t S e r v e r N a m e s ( S e r v i c e N a m e s )
Monarch print servers automatically make themselves known on a NetWare
network. Each print server port has an associated default NetWare name:
XCD_xxxxxx_P1
The default NetWare print server names are actually the names of the print server's
NetWare services. The "xxxxxx" in all of the above cases is the last six digits of
the Ethernet address (for example, XCD_034578_P1). Refer to the label on the
print server or to the print server self-test for the Ethernet address. If desired, you
may change the default names to something more meaningful by using XAdmin32,
XAdmin, WebXAdmin, JetAdmin, or the print server console.
