Chapter 5:
Setting up
Network Servers
This chapter describes environments that typically include one or more network
servers—Novell NetWare servers and Windows NT 4.0 servers—that will share
printing to the GA-1040. It describes setting up servers that use IPX/SPX or TCP/IP
protocols for communicating with the GA-1040. In addition, it includes some
guidelines for setting up direct communication from Windows NT 4.0 workstations,
where a network server is optional. The chapter also outlines the requirements for
network clients to print to the GA-1040 and to run the Fiery utilities and the
Fiery WebTools.
The GA-1040 can accept jobs concurrently from NetWare, Windows NT 4.0, and
AppleShare servers, as well as jobs sent directly from Windows NT 4.0 workstations.
Because AppleShare servers require no special configuration, they are not discussed in
this chapter, except for use in a Windows NT 4.0 environment (see "GA-1040 on a
TCP/IP network with Windows NT 4.0" on page 5-10).
If your network is based on Windows NT 4.0, proceed to page 5-10.
GA-1040 on a NetWare 5.x network with NDPS
The GA-1040 supports printing over a NetWare 5.x network running either the
TCP/IP protocols or the IPX protocol. For pure IP printing, the GA-1040 takes
advantage of features in NDPS (Novell Distributed Print Services), using the Novell
Gateway version 2.0.3 or later and Support Pack version 3.0 or later. For IPX printing,
the GA-1040 supports the PServer service in Bindery emulation or through NDS
(Novell Directory Services). For more information on IPX-based printing, see
"GA-1040 on a NetWare 3.x or 4.x network" on page 5-4.
Setting up a NetWare environment correctly requires the presence and active

cooperation of the Novell network administrator. You must have administrator
privileges on the network to create new NDS or bindery objects.
NDPS is not like the earlier queue-based versions of NetWare printing. Instead,
you use an NDPS Manager and a Printer Agent, which control the tasks previously
handled by a print queue, print server, and spooler. You can also make the printer
