Quick Setup Using the NIC Setup Tool Wizard
Using the NIC Setup Tool, you can easily set up a NetWare printing environment after
physically installing the Network Interface Card into the printer. You can select [Wizard] or
[Property Sheet] as an installation method. When you configure the Network Interface Card for
the first time, use the Wizard method.
When the Wizard method is used, the Network Interface Card is configured to work as a Print
Server. To configure it as a remote printer, use the Property Sheet method.
NetWare Configuration
Note: This section assumes that NetWare is functional and that the necessary
environment for the NetWare Print Services is available.
You should install the client software released from Novell on the Windows
before running the NIC Setup Tool for configuring in NDS mode or using
Windows NT 4.0.
