Network Printer Parameters
Part No. 1H9613 June 1997 4-5
• RSSERVER.EXE for defining a primary server with the printer
in Raster mode.
• CNTL_D file must be appended to the configuration files that
are downloaded through the parallel printer port.
If a Macintosh system is available on the network, these Windows
utility files could be transferred to the Macintosh and then
downloaded to the printer over the network using the LaserWriter
Downloader Utility. This method avoids the additional necessity
for a parallel I/F to the printer from a PC.
Primary Server For PostScript Printers
To define the primary NetWare server for a PostScript printer in
PostScript mode, do the following steps:
1. Edit the PSSERVER.PS file from the Utilities for Novell
diskette.
2. In the third line of the file, replace the phrase “PUT YOUR
SERVER NAME HERE” with the name of the primary
NetWare server where the KSETUP configuration file
resides.
Make sure that the ( ) in (PUTYOURSERVERNAMEHERE)
are not removed.
NOTE: The primary server name is case sensitive.
3. Save and exit the file.
4. Send the file to the printer through a port such as the parallel
port. The following command is an example of sending the
file to the printer using the parallel port. The CNTL_D file is
found on the Utilities for Novell diskette and is only necessary
if the file is downloaded using the parallel port.
COPY PSSERVER.PS + CNTL_D LPT1:
5. Once the file has been sent to the printer, power cycle the
printer to allow the change to take effect.
Primary Server for Raster Printers
To define the primary NetWare server for a Raster printer, do the
following steps:
1. Execute the RSSERVER program from the Utilities for Novell
diskette by typing RSSERVER at the command line.
