Managing the NetportExpress 
Print Server

You can manage the NetportExpress print server using Windows Netport 
Manager, Web Netport Manager, Web Enterprise Netport Manager, Intel Device 
View, SNMP, JetAdmin, Web JetAdmin, or Telnet.

Netport Manager

Netport Manager is a Windows application that allows you to fully configure 
and manage your NetportExpress print server. From Netport Manager you can 
configure your print server using the Config Wizard, get status from the printer 
and print server, and update your print server. 

Web Netport Manager

Web Netport Manager is an HTML interface that resides on the print server. You 
can use your Web browser to change the print server configuration, view the 
print server’s status, and update the print server. 

Web Enterprise Netport Manager

Web Enterprise Netport Manager is a Java* application that searches the 
network for NetportExpress print servers and allows browsing to any 
NetportExpress print server on the network. You also can export the list of print 
servers and groups to a set of HTML files. 

Other Management tools

You can also use Intel Device View, JetAdmin, Web JetAdmin, SNMP, and 
Telnet to manage your print server. For more information, see page 19.

Which tool should I use?

The Netport Manager Config Wizard is the easiest way to set up your print 
server.

Web Netport Manager is the easiest way to check or change the print server 
configuration from anywhere on your network without installing any 
software on a workstation.

To configure for Novell bindery print server or remote printer modes, use 
the Netport Manager Config Wizard. Netport Manager creates the queues 
and other Novell objects.
