Supporting DocuPrint NPS on a file server
There are a number of tasks you perform on the file server to support
the DocuPrint NPS as either a print server or a remote printer:
With DocuPrint NPS as a PSERVER you must allow
unencrypted password login on the file server. Enter the
following command at the file server console prompt and in the
AUTOEXEC.NCF file:
set allow unencrypted passwords=on
Note: Set this command even if you do not establish a print
server password. Novell clients that use encrypted passwords
are unaffected by this change and will continue to use encrypted
passwords.
Do not configure the file server to support IPX checksums or
NCP packet signatures. Set these options to equal 0 or 1 so
that the server performs these options only when the client
requests them. The default value is 1.
Do not set the watchdog interval to less than one minute.
Longer intervals may cause the DocuPrint NPS to be logged
out.
If the print queue contains 250 jobs on a regular basis, set the
Maximum File Locks Per Connection to a value greater than
250. The default value is 250.
Define forms using PRINTDEF with names matching virtual
printer names. Applies only if DocuPrint NPS is configured as
an RPRINTER.)
Note: DocuPrint NPS supports native connection to Novel 3.12 file
servers. However, to run DocuPrint NPS with Novell 4.X servers, the
Novell server must be configured to run Bindery Emulation.
