Monarch print servers can be configured in Queue Server mode for either bindery
or NDS mode operation. The simplest way to do this is with XAdmin32 or HP's
JetAdmin utilities. XAdmin32 is a Windows 95/98 and Windows NT 4.xx-based
utility that allows you to configure the print server and create NetWare print queues
without using NetWare utilities like PCONSOLE or NWAdmin (if you have Windows
3.xx, you must use XAdmin as described later in this chapter). JetAdmin is a
Hewlett-Packard utility that provides similar capabilities. Other methods include
XCD's XAdmin or XCONFIG utilities in conjunction with Novell's NWAdmin or
PCONSOLE.

NOTE: It is recommended to use the Novell 32-bit client on your Windows
95/98/NT workstation instead of the Microsoft NetWare client, because it
allows direct configuration of print queues without the need for a Novell
utility like NWAdmin or PCONSOLE.
If you have a Windows 3.xx system, you must use XAdmin as described
later in this chapter.
1. Make sure that you are logged in as ADMIN or equivalent (NetWare 4.xx and
above) or SUPERVISOR (NetWare 2.xx and 3.xx)
2. Run XAdmin32.
3. Click on the IPX/SPX icon under Filters to set the operating mode to IPX/SPX
(TCP/IP mode will not allow you to configure NetWare print queues directly).
The print server should appear in the list of available printers (the name will
one of the ones listed in the Default Print Server Names section at the
beginning of this chapter). If it does not, try going to the menu bar and
selecting Devices and then Search Active Devices.
4. Double click on the printer that you wish to configure, enter the configuration
password (ACCESS is the default), and press OK.
5. A series of index card tabs will be displayed. Click on the NetWare tab to
configure the port.

If it is not already selected, select Queue Server as the operating
mode.
