Advantages • High performance: up to 1 Mbyte/s
Limitations • In bindery mode, this printing method requires a NetWare user licence
for each Axis Network Print Server to file server link.
The Axis Network Print Server acts as Remote Printer for PSERVER.NLM
running on the NetWare file server, or to a dedicated workstation running
PSERVER.EXE. In this fashion, the Axis Network Print Server emulates a
workstation running the NetWare remote printer software RPRINTER, or
NPRINTER. This mode is only recommended for small networks where the
number of NetWare user licences is a major issue.
Advantages • NetWare user licences are not required.
Limitations • Lower performance, typically 20 - 70 kbytes/s for NLM and higher
network load.
After installing the Axis Network Print Server into the NetWare
environment, you can manage your Axis Network Print Server, using
either Novell's NetWare Administrator, or PCONSOLE.
Some useful features provided by the NetWare Administrator are
described in more detail below:
Printer Status: The Printer Status menu, detailed below, shows the status
of an active print job serviced by an Axis Network Print Server. It
displays detailed information concerning the active job including, Print
Queue, print job description, size of print file, percentage of job
completed, etc. You can also abort or pause the print job from this menu.
Notification: You can use the NetWare Administrator to enable or disable
status notification messages for printers connected to the AXIS
5400+/AXIS 5600+, e.g. Busy, Off-line, Out of paper, Paper jam, etc. You
can also add or remove print job owners and administrators from the list
of persons to be notified.
Print Layout: You can view installed AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ and their
relative print queues for any NetWare Organizational Unit. You can also
display summary information by right-clicking on the printer object you
want to examine.
