Chapter 12 Novell NIC Configuration (10/100Base-T)
Changing The Print Server Mode (NDS & Bindery)
The NIC allows the user to store a particular mode for the unit to operate in.
This will be either NDS, Bindery, or autosense. If autosense is used, the NIC
will first attempt to log in to a NDS file server, and, if it fails, it will try to log in to
a Bindery file server.
HTML Method
1. Load a Web browser on a network station that can communicate with the
print server over TCP/IP.
2. Direct your Web browser to URL:
http://P5000LJIPaddress/networkConf.html
(e.g., http://192.75.11.9/networkConf.html)
3. Look under the “Novell” section and go to the “Service Type” field to
select the appropriate mode.
4. Click on the SUBMIT button when done and physically re-power the
printer to make the new settings take effect.
Manual (Telnet) Method
1. Telnet to the print server. This will bring up a login screen:
telnet ipaddress
2. You should now see a prompt displayed that has the NIC’s IP address
followed by a colon then
root
.
ipaddress:root>
3. At the prompt, enter:
store pserver novell mode [nds | bindery | auto]
4. Reset the unit to make the changes take effect.

Note If you are using both NDS and Bindery file servers in your setup, make
sure the mode is set to auto.
