Changing The Print Server Name (NDS & Bindery)
When defining a new print queue on a Novell file server, a new print server
must be defined to represent the NIC. This name must match the pre-defined
name given to the print server. By default, this name is in the format
M_xxxxxx where xxxxxx equals the last six digits of the NIC’s Ethernet
address found on the bottom of the device
(e.g.,
M_091C1A). You must make sure that the print server object that you
are using for your PSERVER setup has the same name as that stored on the
NIC. If you need to rename the print server object in Netware Administrator,
please delete the object and re-create it with the new name. Netware
administrator seems to have some problems with renaming objects.
Note You may also want to change the “Service mode for forms” to “Change
forms as needed.” If you do not do this, the NIC will need to poll the file
server twice as much to get all the information it needs.
