ColorPASS on a NetWare 5.x network with NDPS
The ColorPASS supports printing over a NetWare 5.x network running either the
TCP/IP protocols or the IPX protocol. For pure IP printing, the ColorPASS takes
advantage of features in NDPS (Novell Distributed Print Services). For IPX printing,
the ColorPASS supports the PServer service in Bindery emulation or through NDS
(Novell Directory Services). For more information on IPX-based printing, see
“ColorPASS on a NetWare 3.x or 4.x network” on page 5-5.

Setting up a NetWare environment correctly requires the presence and active
cooperation of the Novell network administrator. You must have administrator
privileges on the network to create new NDS or bindery objects.
NDPS is not like the earlier queue-based versions of NetWare printing. Instead, you
use an NDPS Manager and a Printer Agent, which control the tasks previously
handled by a print queue, print server, and spooler. You can also make the printer
driver available for clients to download from Windows 95/98/Me and
Windows NT 4.0/2000 computers.
The ColorPASS can receive print jobs from NetWare clients over Ethernet or Token
Ring network topologies. (Appendix A describes the Token Ring option.) During
ColorPASS Setup, you select the frame type or types that will be used for
communication between the ColorPASS and network servers. Frame type refers to the
format of a communications packet; frame types are specified in a startup file when the
NetWare server (or any other workstation) loads its network drivers.
Tips for experts—NetWare 5.x networks
Setting up the ColorPASS in an NDPS environment is similar to setting up any other
PostScript printer on the network. The following information is useful for experienced
network administrators:
• Make sure you have a valid IP address for the ColorPASS and for any workstations that
will print to it or run the Fiery utilities.
• In ColorPASS Setup, enable TCP/IP and enter the IP address, Subnet mask, and
Gateway address for the ColorPASS. You can enter these manually or use DHCP, RARP,
or BOOTP protocols to assign the addresses dynamically.
• Bi-directional communication features in NDPS are not supported on the ColorPASS.
