Setting Up - NetWare
AXIS 540+/AXIS 560 63
Setting the PSERVER parameters in the Axis Network Print Server Web interface.
4. Use the NetWare Administrator to create the printer, print server and queue
objects in the NDS tree and then link them together. The Print Services Quick
Setup (Non-NDPS) utility can be used for this. Go to Tools in the NetWare
Administrator.
5. Use the Add Printer Wizard on your work station to install the printer on your
client. Note that only NDS queue based PSERVER printing is supported. When
installing, choose Network Printer and browse to the queue you have just
created. Alternatively, choose Local Printer and select the queue you have
just captured.
Any configuration and management of the Axis Network Print Server can be
performed from any standard Web browser. Please refer to Using a Web
browser, on page 79.
If both the IPX and IP protocols are enabled in your network and the print
server uses DUAL_STACK (enabled by default) as its network transport protocol,
then IPX will be chosen. To force the print server to use the IP transport
protocol, go to your print server’s web interface and choose Admin | Detailed
View | NetWare and change the NetWare Transport Protocol from
DUAL_STACK to IP_ONLY. Save and exit when finished.
Note:
Queue-based Printing
Methods
The following overview explains the advantages and limitations of the two
supported queue-based printing methods.
Print Server Mode The Axis Network Print Server logs in to a file server(s) and repeatedly polls the
print queues for print jobs. In this fashion, the Axis Network Print Server
emulates a NetWare print server, which 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
takes one NetWare user license.
Pure IP requires that you run NetWare 5 or higher.
