Novell NetWare Configuration
The GCC Elite 21 printer includes standard support for NetWare peer-to-peer
networking. Before configuring the NetWare server to access the printer, however,
NetWare support must be enabled on the printer, as follows:
• Start the printer and wait for the LCD display to read Ready.
• Press either Menu key until Input/Output appears.
• Press either Item key until NetWare appears.
• Press either Value key until Enable appears. Press Select.
• The display will read “Restart Printer?” Press either Item key to select Restart
Now, then press Select. The printer will restart, and NetWare will be enabled.
Also, before starting the NetWare server configuration, you should print out a
Network Status Page from the printer. This page provides information that is helpful
during the configuration. The page is printed as follows:
• Press either Menu key until Information appears.
• Press either item button until Print Net Status appears.
• Press Select to print the page.
NetWare can then be configured to use the printer. The printer can either be set up
using traditional NetWare based utilities such as PConsole or NWAdmin, or using a
utility called NWSetup, which is provided with the Elite 21 Series software.
Instructions for using NWSetup follow, with instructions for using Novell utilities on
Page 8-28 (Novell 2.x/3.x) and 8-30 (NetWare 4.x).
Netware Configuration using NWSetup
NWSetup lets you do the entire setup procedure for Novell NetWare and your
printer using only one program. This program combines the following configuration
steps:
• Lets you set up the Novell file servers and print servers for NetWare printing,
instead of using NetWare utilities.
• Allows you to set up your print server printers fsor network printing.
