This chapter describes environments that typically include one or more Novell NetWare and Windows NT 4.0 network servers that share printing to the Phaser 790. It describes setting up servers that use IPX/SPX or TCP/IP protocols for communicating with the printer.
Page 138: Printing On A Netware 3.X, 4.X Or 5.X Network
For information about client setup and printing refer to the installation and printing chapters that are appropriate for the operating system. The Phaser 790 can receive print jobs from NetWare clients over the Ethernet or Token Ring network topologies. During printer setup, you select the frame type(s) that will be used for communication between the Phaser 790 and the network servers.
Page 139: Overview Of Ipx Printing To The Phaser 790
8. Setting up the network server Overview of IPX printing to the Phaser 790 Setting up the Phaser 790 is similar to setting up any other PostScript printer on the network. The following information is useful for experienced system administrators.
Page 140: Configuring A Netware 3.X, 4.X Or 5.X Server For Printing
When the Phaser 790 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.

Page 144: The Phaser 790 On A Tcp/Ip Network With Windows Nt 4.0
Windows NT 4.0 When a Windows NT 4.0 workstation is configured to connect to the Phaser 790 using TCP/IP, it can print directly to the printer. If the workstation shares the printer over the network, it is acting as a print server to Windows NT 4.0 clients.
Page 145: Configuring A Windows Nt 4.0 Server
Load the TCP/IP network protocol and configure it with an IP address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway. Enter the host name of the Phaser 790 in the host database Perform Printer Setup. On the Windows NT 4.0 server, create a printer for each print connection, install the appropriate printer drivers, and (optionally) share the printer on the network.
Page 146: Installing The Phaser 790 As A Shared Printer
The host name should be the same name you gave to the Phaser 790 in the Server Setup on the control panel. A sample entry for the Phaser 790 as the remote printer is 127.0.0.1<TAB>DocuColor<TAB>#Marketing_printer If the printer has already been defined in an /etc/hosts file or equivalent host name database on a UNIX workstation on our network, you should use the same host name that is used for the remote printer in the /etc/printcap file.
