DocuPrint as a print server (PSERVER)

XEROX DOCUPRINT NETWORK PRINTER SERIES INSTALLATION PLANNING GUIDE FOR MODEL 92C NPS
Indicate whether you have Xerox client software installed, and are
supporting Xerox clients on the network.
lpr and lpd Indicate whether to enable client use of lpr and lpd job submission
and status commands.
Indicate whether to have a UNIX command tool available for use in
the background menu.
Retry count Determine whether the DocuPrint NPS system supports a print
production environment, or whether the system remains unattended.
Once you determine the environment the DocuPrint NPS supports,
you must decide the number of attempts the system makes to print a
job before a sequencer restart causes the job to be held for
intervention.
•
If the DocuPrint NPS supports a print production environment,
you may want to specify a large number or zero as the number
of attempts the system makes to retry a print job. (Zero
indicates an infinite number of retries.)
•
If the DocuPrint NPS is unattended, you may want to specify
only 1 or 2 retries to print a job.
The Novell network information you provide to your service
representative is based on whether you configure the DocuPrint as a
print server or a remote printer. Refer to this chapter and your Novell
network administrator for assistance, if necessary.
Provide the following information to the service representative if you
configure DocuPrint NPS as a print server on the Novell network (for
further information, refer to the "Installation process" section in the
"Installation" chapter of this guide):
•
Novell file server name—indicates the name of the file server
that the DocuPrint NPS services. The file server must have the
appropriate print server definition and the queue to be serviced.
•
Print server name—indicates the name used by the DocuPrint
NPS print server. A print server definition with this name must
exist on the file server that the DocuPrint NPS services. A
single printer (type Remote Other/Unknown) must be defined
for this print server and the queue (refer to the queue name
below).
•
Password for the print server—refers to a password you may
have added in the print server definition (using PCONSOLE). It
is not necessary to add a password to a print server, and there
is no default password.
•
Queue name to service—refers to the name of the queue from
which the DocuPrint print server accepts jobs. The queue must
be defined on the file server that the DocuPrint NPS services.
The single printer that must be defined for the print server (as
stated above) must also be defined to service the specified
queue.
