Supporting DocuPrint NPS/IPS on the file server

D-12
In the following illustration, the queue, remote printer, and virtual
printer are configured with the same name, and the specified
printer is set to print duplex. The user sends a print job through
the LPT1 port to a queue named DPDuplex that is sent to the
DPDuplex, and assigned to DPDuplex virtual printer.

There are a number of tasks you perform on the file server to
support the DocuPrint NPS/IPS as either a print server or a
remote printer:
• With DocuPrint NPS/IPS as a PSERVER you must allow
unencrypted password login on the file server. Enter the
following command at the file server console prompt and in
the AUTOEXEC.NCF file:
set allow unencrypted passwords=on
NOTE: Set this command even if you do not establish a print
server password. Novell clients that use encrypted
passwords are unaffected by this change and will continue to
use encrypted passwords.
• Do not configure the file server to support IPX checksums or
NCP packet signatures. Set these options to equal 0 or 1 so
that the server performs these options only when the client
requests them. The default value is 1.
• Do not set the watchdog interval to less than one minute.
Longer intervals may cause the DocuPrint NPS/IPS to be
logged out.
• If the print queue contains 250 jobs on a regular basis, set
the Maximum File Locks Per Connection to a value greater
than 250. The default value is 250.
• Define forms using PRINTDEF with names matching virtual
printer names. (Applies only if DocuPrint NPS/IPS is
configured as an RPRINTER.)
