4.1.6 Set Up Notify Options for the Printer (Optional)
To enable the print server to notify users or user groups if a problem occurs with the printer,
set up the Notify options. The print server supports the enhanced NOTIFY options for
printers, including informing users when the printer:
Ÿ Is the printer opened or off-line, paper jammed, or out of paper
Ÿ Requires a manual paper feed or a form change
Ÿ Has had an engine failure

4.1.7 Installing the Print Server on Multiple File Servers
To install the print server on more than one file server, perform the procedures described in
Sections 4.1.1 through 4.1.6 for each file server. You must use the same name and
password for the print server (or no password) on all file servers. You set the password for
the Network Interface Board using the MAP program (
ð refer to 4.3 Configuring the Network
Interface Board in NetWare Directory Services ). If you use a password, specify it on each
file server using the Change Password option on the Print Server Information menu of the
PCONSOLE utility.
When the Network Interface Board comes up, it automatically searches for and attaches to
the file servers that are no more than four hops and have no more than eight ticks
propagation delay. For extremely large or complex networks, this allows a bounded search
time on start-up. If the print server must attach to file servers beyond this range, or, if you
wish to accelerate start-up by eliminating the need to search all file servers in the four
hops/eight ticks radius, the file servers with which the print server is to operate may be
entered into the Print Server Configuration of a primary file server. The primary file server
can be any file server within the four hops/eight ticks propagation time limits, but ideally is as
close as possible to the print server. Once the print server locates the primary file server and
