In the Print Server mode the AXIS PrintPoint 140 BJC logs in to a file
server(s) and repeatedly polls the print queues for print jobs. In this
fashion, the AXIS PrintPoint 140 BJC emulates a NetWare print
server, that is a workstation running PSERVER. It provides high
printing speed with low network load and is the recommended mode
for medium to large sized networks. Each print server in PSERVER
mode will occupy one NetWare license.
•
Easy to set up.
•
High performance (typically 150-400 kbytes/s).
•
Requires a NetWare user licence for each AXIS PrintPoint 140
BJC to file server link.
In the Remote Printer mode the AXIS PrintPoint 140 BJC connects
itself to a PSERVER NetWare program running on the file server, or
alternatively to a dedicated workstation running PSERVER.EXE. It
then automatically receives print jobs from the file server. In this
fashion, the AXIS PrintPoint 140 BJC emulates a workstation
running the NetWare remote printer software RPRINTER, or
NPRINTER. This mode is only recommended for small networks
where the number of NetWare user licences is a major issue.
•
NetWare user licences are not required.
•
Easy to set up.
•
Lower performance, e.g. typically 20 - 70 kbytes/s for NLM.
•
Higher network load.
