Overview
This chapter provides an overview and step-by-step
procedures for setting up the printer on a Novell NetWare
network. These procedures require that you have the
NetWare access privileges of the system supervisor.
While the instructions in this section are complete, you may
need to consult your system supervisor or network
administrator, or refer to
Chapter 11: Troubleshooting
.
Note
To avoid confusion, you should remember that the XNIC is a
printer server, while Print Server or PServer is Novell
software that manages the operation of printers on the
NetWare network.
The default Print Server (PServer) name is:
XNE
xxxxx
x for XNIC-ENET
XNT
xxxxxx
for XNIC-TRING
where xxxxxx
is the last six characters of the XNIC
hardware address.
The default Printer name is:
XNE
xxxxxx
_1 for XNIC-ENET
XNT
xxxxxx
_1 for XNIC-TRING.
The Printer name is the Print Server name followed by an
underscore _ and a 1.
Before you begin the installation, print a Printer
Configuration Sheet or the Network Interface Configuration
sheets to obtain the necessary Novell settings on the XNIC.
Refer to page 1-11 for instructions on printing configuration
sheets.
