Setting up IPX (Novell) printing
Setting up IPX (Novell) printing
IPX, Novell’s Internetwork Packet Exchange protocol, runs on networks that
include a Novell NetWare server. The server, typically a dedicated PC, is usually
configured to control workstation access to shared resources. In addition to other
services, NetWare servers use IPX protocols to provide spooling, queue
management, and print services to computers (including Macintosh, DOS,
UNIX, and VAX) whose operating software is compatible with IPX protocols.
This section describes network setup for an IPX (Novell) network.
Overview of IPX printing to the Ci1000
NetWare file servers support the creation of print queues, storage areas for print
jobs. When a user on a network workstation prints a job, the job is sent to a print
queue on the NetWare server. The job is spooled to the NetWare file server disk,
freeing up the workstation.
The queues on the NetWare server must be named to match the Direct
connection and Print queue on the Ci1000. The NetWare queue names should be
given an extension corresponding to the Ci1000 printing connection, as follows:
_print
_hold
_direct
N
OTE
:
The extensions must be all lowercase and in English.
When the Ci1000 is configured to connect to a NetWare server, it polls the
NetWare server for jobs in each of its queues. If jobs are found, they are
transferred over the network to the matching connection: Print to Print, Direct to
Direct. While a job is processed and printed, a record of the job is being created.
You can access the Job Log containing these records at any time.
When the printer is connected to a NetWare print queue that is defined on the
NetWare server, the printer polls the queue for jobs and receives them over the
network for immediate processing and printing. All printer jobs are sent from the
printer queue on the NetWare server to the Ci1000.
