Printer management software is available for the following systems
through your Hewlett-Packard distributor or through electronic BBS

2.2/2.3/2.4/2.5)
• Microsoft LAN Manager
To learn more about HP JetAdmin for the HP LaserJet 5Si family of
printers, see the HP JetDirect Print Server Software Installation Guide.
HP Print Server NLM
The Printing System includes Hewlett-Packard’s print server network
loadable module (NLM), which runs on NetWare 3.x and 4.x file
servers. It allows a network administrator to manage and control a
peripheral attached to a parallel port on a NetWare file server. HP’s Print
Server NLM (JETPS.NLM) can be used as a replacement for Novell’s
PSERVER.NLM. It services print queues on one or more file servers
and provides the same NetWare printing functionality as HP’s JetDirect
products. To run the Print Server NLM, HP JetAdmin must also be
installed.
Note If the HP JetDirect Print Server (a hardware solution) is available, use
that in preference to the HP Print Server NLM (a software solution.)
This provides the same services and frees the server to concentrate on
other tasks.
Macintosh Utilities
The Macintosh software partition on the Printing System CD is only
accessible from Macintosh systems.
• HP LaserJet Utility
The HP LaserJet Utility allows the network administrator to configure
many printer features from the computer. This is especially helpful in a
network environment when the printer is not near your desktop. With
this utility you can:
• Name the printer, assign it to a zone on your network, download
files and fonts, and change many of the default settings
• Permanently download fonts to the printer’s hard disk (if installed)
• Monitor the status of networked printers
• Lock the printer control panel and set a password without leaving
your computer
