NOTE: If prompted for a “User ID” and password first, type in “
root
” for
the ID and press ENTER at the password prompt since there’s no
password by default.
3. You should now see a prompt displayed that has the PrintNet’s IP
address followed by a colon then root.
ipaddress
:root>
4. At the prompt,
store
the RPRINTER settings on the PrintNet. The
pservername
refers to the existing PSERVER.NLM on the file
server created in step 1.
Syntax:
store rprinter add
pservername
printernumber
PrintNetdestination
Example for an RPRINTER servicing printer
0
of the PSERVER.NLM
called
pserver1
and sending jobs to the PrintNet destination
d1prn
:
store rprinter add pserver1 0 d1prn
NOTE: If it is an NDS pserver, only enter the PSERVER name and not
the context (e.g.,
sales_ps
).
5. Physically re-power the printer to make the new settings take effect.
Wait two minutes and then check your PSERVER to see if the appropriate
printer is being serviced. The printer should display a message such as
“Waiting for job”. At this point, the PrintNet knows to receive any jobs this
PSERVER.NLM has to send to it through the defined printer.

print setup, there are several things to confirm.
NOTE: The debug information that is mentioned in this section can be
found by either
telnet
-ing to the PrintNet and issuing the
commands given, or launching a browser to the Novell status
page on the PrintNet (e.g.,
http://192.168.11.9/
networkNovellStatus.html
)
