5-14 Novell Network Configuration

5. Insert the Print Server Software diskette or CD-ROM into your PC and run the

XCONFIG utility (in the \utilities directory on the CD-ROM)
Select the print server from the list of print servers. When you get the
message that the print server is connected, press the ENTER key and type the
password ACCESS in response to the "#" prompt (the password will not echo),
and then press the ENTER key again in response to the Enter Username>
prompt. When you get the Local> prompt, type:

S E T N E T N P R I N T E R n l m n u m b e r O N s e r v i c e

S E T N E T R E S C A N

where nlm is the name of the PSERVER NLM on your file server, number is
the printer number (must match the printer number you selected during the
PCONSOLE configuration in the previous steps) and service is the name of
the service (the default service names are listed in the Default Print Server
Names section of this chapter). For example, to set up remote printer 3
for an HP printer with the XCD external print server XCD_00C3E4 using
the PSERVER NLM called XCD1PS, you would type:

S E T N E T N P R I N T E R X C D 1 P S 3 O N X C D _ 0 0 C 3 E 4 _ P 1

S E T N E T R E S C A N

E X I T

NOTE:

The same service cannot be used for both queue server mode and
remote printer mode.
If you want to enable remote printer capabilities on services other
than the default NetWare services, you must define new services
that are enabled for NetWare and for the desired port.

6. You must now unload the PSERVER NLM from your NetWare file server

console and then reload it in order for the changes to take effect.

The final step is to configure the workstation(s) to print to the print server. The
print server can be used with any workstation that supports either the Novell or
Microsoft client software.

Configuring the Workstation (Windows 95/98)

To use a NetWare print queue from a Windows 95 workstation, first make sure that
the appropriate NetWare drivers are installed. Then go to the Start button, choose
Settings, and then select Printers. Double click on the Add Printer icon and then
execute the following steps when you get to the Add Printer Wizard.

1. Click on Next, Select Network Printer and click on Next again.
