Novell NetWare

Overview

The OkiLAN print server supports the Novell NetWare environment.
It is necessary to have NetWare Administrator or Supervisor rights
to change the configuration. This guide is for NetWare
administrators. It should be read in conjunction with the relevant
Novell NetWare manual. The latest Novell service packs and Novell
client versions should be installed.

Supported Versions and Modes

NetWare 3.11 +
NetWare 4.1+
NetWare 5+
NetWare 6
In NDS, the printer can be configured to work in either print server
mode or remote printer mode.

Remote Printer Mode

Remote Printer Mode requires a connection to be made to a
workstation running Pserver. Print jobs are received from the file
server via the NetWare print server. The network interface card
emulates the workstation on which the NetWare Rprinter operates.
Remote Printer Mode adds additional traffic to the network and is
slower than Print Server Mode but does not require any additional
licenses.

Print Server Mode (Recommended)

In Print Server Mode, the file server is logged in and the printer
queue is repeatedly polled to determine whether a print job exists.
The NetWare print server or workstation where Pserver runs is
emulated. This enables high speed printing without applying a load
to the network. Print Server Mode requires a single user NetWare
license.
