Installing The Ipx Peer-To-Peer Redirector - Ricoh fax3310l Basic Features

5.1 Windows IPX Peer-to-Peer Printing
Note: Peer-to-Peer printing uses the IPX/SPX protocol. Therefore, Novell operation must
remain enabled on the Network Interface Board even if you are not using Novell print-
ing facilities. The name of the Peer-to-Peer printer in the Windows Port List is the
same as the Novell Print Server name. You can change the Novell Print Server name
using MAP or a Web browser. See Chapter 3, Monitoring the Network Interface
Board.
On power-up, the Network Interface Board checks the network for any Novell activity. If
there is activity, the Network Interface Board uses the frame type and the local network
number that it senses. In addition, if the Network Interface Board can log in to a file
server, it assumes Novell is normally used and stores this frame type and new number in
NVRAM. Thus, when the Network Interface Board comes up again, it does not have to
spend time sensing (which can cause a delay).
However, if the Network Interface Board cannot attach to a file server, it will use the
sensed values but will not store them.
If the Network Interface Board does not see any Novell activity, it uses 802.2 on 802.3 as
a frame type and assigns itself a network number of 0 (zero). The status and configuration
sheet contains information on the frame type and network number used.
If you move Network Interface Board from a site that has active NetWare to a site that
does not, you should reset the Network Interface Board to factory default values to clear
the frame type and network number information.
