Step 2, option B:
Setting up the printer as a remote printer
(RPRINTER mode)
There are six parts to setting up the printer for RPRINTER mode:
m Create a print server
m Create a printer from within the print server configuration menu options
m Create a print queue from within the printer configuration menu options
m Set your printer to RPRINTER mode
m Start PSERVER on your NetWare 4.1 file server
m Turn the printer off and then back on to have the changes take effect
Create a print server
1
Turn the printer off, then on, and retrieve the printer’s startup page.
2
Type SET BINDERY CONTEXT at the server’s console prompt to ensure that the context
has been set. Write the context down, as it will be needed later.
3
Log in to a NetWare file server from a DOS client using the Admin account.
4
At the DOS prompt, type
PCONSOLE
, and press Enter.
5
Use the arrow keys to highlight Change Context in the menu, and press Enter.
6
Change the PCONSOLE utility’s context to match the context set on the server (what you
wrote down earlier) by pressing the Ins key and selecting the correct context.
7
Use the arrow keys to highlight Printer Servers in the menu, and press Enter.
8
Press the Ins key, then type a descriptive name for your printer server.
This can be any name, but in general you should be able to glance at the
object and know what its purpose is (for example “12_660_Server”).
Create a printer from within the print server configuration menu options
1
Select the name of the print server you specified in “Step 2, Option A: Setting Up the
Printer as a Print Server (Using PCONSOLE)”; then press Enter.
2
Use the arrow keys to highlight Printers in the Print Server Information menu, and
press Enter.
This lets you configure the new print server.
