Overview of IPX printing to the Pi6500 Pro

NetWare file servers support the creation of print queues, which are storage areas for
print jobs. When a client on a remote computer decides to print, the job is directed to
a print queue on the NetWare file server and spooled to the NetWare server disk,
freeing up the client workstation.
The queues on the NetWare server must be named to match the Direct connection
and the Print, and Hold queues on the Pi6500 Pro. The NetWare queue names should
be given an extension corresponding to the Pi6500 Pro print connection, as follows:
_print
_hold
_direct
The extension names must be in all lowercase and must be in English.

There is no need to rerun Setup when adding or removing a NetWare queue; however
you should reboot the Pi6500 Pro after a queue is created or removed.
When the Pi6500 Pro is configured to connect to a NetWare server, it polls the
NetWare server for jobs in each of its queues. If jobs are found, they are transferred
over the network to the matching connection: Print to Print, Hold to Hold, Direct to
Direct. While a job is processed and printed, a record of the job is being created. You
can access the Job Log containing these records at any time.
