environments
Important:
Public Access Printers
The AXIS 5600+ supports Novell Distributed Print Services (NDPS).
You can run NDPS over Pure IP (TCP/IP) or IPX/SPX.
Before the AXIS 5600+ can be installed, make sure that NDPS is
installed and a Broker is loaded on your NetWare file server.
AXIS 5600+ uses the AXIS NDPS Gateway for printing in networks
using either IP or IPX as transport protocols. The printer gateways are
included with the NDPS software (from version 5.1 and up) and are
automatically installed together with NDPS.
Notes:
• NDPS requires that you run NetWare 4.11 or higher.
Pure IP is only supported by NetWare 5 or higher.
Having assigned an IP address to the AXIS 5600+ as described in
Assigning an IP address, on page 22, you are now ready to install the
AXIS 5600+ for NDPS printing. You can select to install the
connected printers as public or controlled access printers. Follow the
instructions below to install the AXIS 5600+ using NDPS:
• The HP-JETADMIN parameter of the AXIS 5600+ must be set to YES in order for
the communication between the AXIS 5600+ and the NDPS gateway to be
enabled
To change this parameter, log in to the print server's web pages and choose:
Admin =>General Settings=>HP JetAdmin Support => YES.
• If you do not have an NDPS Manager object available, start out with creating one
in the NetWare Administrator.
