Configure the Print Server
12. In the Print Server Information menu select Print
Server Configuration to move to the Print Servers
Configuration menu.
13. In the Print Servers Configuration menu select
Printer Configuration to move to the Configured
Printers menu.
14. Select the first available Not Installed Printer and
press Enter to move to the specific Printer
Configuration menu. The Printer Configuration
menu name will depend on the number of the Not
Installed Printer you selected. For example, if the
first available Not Installed Printer was Printer 0,
you will move to Printer 0 Configuration menu.
15. Backspace over the old name and enter a printer
name in the Printer Name text box. Users will see
this name on their list of available printers. The
name may be the same as the print server name
defined above, or it may be a name that users will
recognize more easily, for example, NEC Printer 0.
16. Move to Type and press Enter.
17. The printer type depends on the operating mode
you have chosen.
For Ethernet connections
-
If you selected Network Printer mode, select
Defined Elsewhere from the Printer Types
menu and press Enter.

For parallel printer connections, you may only
select remote printer mode.
-
Select Parallel, LPT<port> if your printer is
connected to a server running PSERVER.NLM.

printer is connected to a DOS workstation
running PSERVER.EXE.

Select Remote Parallel, LPT<port> if your
printer is connected to a DOS workstation
different from the one that is running
PSERVER.EXE. In this case, the connected DOS
workstation runs RPRINTER.EXE for
NetWare 3.1x, or NPRINTER.EXE for
NetWare 4.1.
See your NetWare manual for more information
about parallel printer connections.
