Novell frame types to the network. This gives the print server a
general overview of the existing bindery and NDS servers as well
as the installed printer queues. The print server logs itself on and
automatically recognizes network changes by searching the
network for new servers every two minutes. This time period for
the new recognition of the network structure, the so-called refresh
time, and the used Novell protocol headers can be configured
using either the print server homepage, the KyoNetCon or
parameter transfer via FTP.
In print server mode, the KYOCERA-PrintServer queries whether
any file servers have print jobs in their respective printer queues at
regular intervals. If any print job exists, the
KYOCERA-PrintServer collects the print data and sends it to the
printer for processing. This time period of polling the print queue,
the so-called poll time, can be configured using either the print
server homepage or the KyoNetCon.
Every print server in the print server mode requires a Novell
NetWare users license. The data throughput during print server
mode is comparatively high. The KYOCERA-PrintServer can
service 16 bindery servers and 8 NDS servers (24 NDS servers
when bindery is turned off). You can install and assign up to a total
of 16 print queues to a print server.
In remote printer mode, a Novell print server must be started on
the Novell file server. The Novell print server is the
PSERVER.NLM module. In Novell NetWare 3 networks, a
workstation or a computer can adopt all print functions. In order to
activate this function, you must start the PSERVER.EXE module
on the respective workstation or computer.
In remote printer mode the print jobs are routed from the
PSERVER to the KYOCERA-PrintServer. The
KYOCERA-PrintServer adopts the function of the NPRINTER in
