For DOS:

At a workstation with a high-density disk drive, insert the EPSON

Net! for NetWare diskette in drive A (or B). Use the DOS COPY

command (copy a:filename. *) to copy the following files to a

network directory or to your hard drive:

EPNWDE.EXE!

EPNWDE.DAT

Note:

Before running the EPSON Net! utility, you mustfirst log on the

NetWare network with supervisor privileges.

This utility requires a minimum of 480 KB of conventional memory.

Print server mode

The default setting for the Ethernet Card is print server mode. In

this mode, the card performs all print server functions and can

service up to 32 queues and eight file servers. No VAP

(Value-Added Process) or NLM (NetWare Loadable Module

®

) is

required. The network user sends a print job from a workstation,

the job is moved across the network to the file server, and it is

placed in a print queue. When the printer is ready, the print server

moves the job from the print queue to the printer.

The Ethernet Card operates like any Novell NetWare print server,

servicing the assigned queues in a round robin fashion. In queues

of the same priority, the Ethernet Card services the first job in a

queue before those in a lower priority queue. The card also

supports encrypted passwords.

This mode provides the highest printing speed while retaining the

control, security, and convenience of a NetWare print server.
