Novell NetWare
NDPS (Novell Distributed Print Services)
On the Drivers, MarkVision
and Utilities CD, look for a
subdirectory named NDPS.
This subdirectory contains the
NDPS gateway files and all
supporting documentation
(README file and an
instructional white paper).
If you have MarkNet print servers in an NDPS environment, we recommend
that you install the Lexmark NDPS IP Gateway. Your printers are integrated
with NDPS so you can easily monitor, control and print to them. You can get
the gateway plus all support files and installation procedures from the Lexmark
Web site (www.lexmark.com) or from some versions of the Drivers,
MarkVision and Utilities CD.
Non-NDPS (queue-based)
The easiest way to configure the print server for NetWare jobs in a non-NDPS
environment is to use MarkVision. MarkVision can automatically create all the
necessary NetWare objects (print queue objects, print server objects, and printer
objects).
Do the following from a Windows NT workstation running Novell NetWare
Client32 software, or from a Windows 95 or Windows 98 workstation running
either Novell Client32 or Microsoft Client for NetWare networks.
1
Install the NetWare software component on the workstation. Look on the
Drivers, MarkVision and Utilities CD for the software. (Hint: Do a custom
install to add network support, and select NetWare.)
2
Launch MarkVision. In the MarkVision main window, find the new
network printer. Look for the line item containing your print server’s
physical address (the MSB form of the print server UAA).
The default login name
contains the characters
!LEX plus the UAA
of the MarkNet print
server (for example,
!LEX00200022012F).
3
Double-click the network printer. Configure the MarkNet print server by
doing the following:
a
Set a unique NetWare login name. This is the name the print server uses
to log in to the NetWare server.
b
Enable the MarkNet print server port.
c
Select PSERVER mode.
For information about
choosing PSERVER or
RPRINTER mode, look on the
CD. Click View
Documentation and look for
the MarkNet link.

To manage NDS queues, specify the NDS tree and context where
the MarkNet print server is defined. Afterwards, create or select
queues to be serviced.
•
To manage bindery queues, specify the file servers. Afterwards,
create or select queues to be serviced.

If prompted to reset the print server, select Yes to immediately begin
servicing the queues.
