Logical_Printer_name is the logical printer name on the 802.11g Wireless Print Server. (e.g. L1) Spooler_directory is the directory you created in Step 6. Example: Marketing|RP1_PS123456:\ [TAB] :lp=:\ [TAB] :rm=PS_Rm203:\ [TAB] :rp=L1:\ [TAB] :sd=/usr/spool/Marketing:\ [TAB] :mx#0: Repeat this process for each Logical Printer/Print Qu
LPD on BSD Before continuing, ensure that an IP Address has been assigned to the 802.11g Wireless Print Server. Remember the following: The remote host name is the name of the 802.11g Wireless Print Server. The remote printer name is the logical printer (e.g. L1) on the 802.11g Wireless Print Server. If asked for the LPD type, enter the service type as BSD. In the sample commands shown, printer_name is the Print Queue serviced by the logical printer on the 802.
Example: Marketing|RP1_PS123456:\ [TAB] :lp=:\ [TAB] :rm=PS_Rm203:\ [TAB] :rp=L1:\ [TAB] :sd=/usr/spool/Marketing:\ [TAB] :mx#0: Repeat this process for each Logical Printer/Print Queue combination that you wish to create. Printing using LPD For LPD printing instructions, refer to your UNIX manual. The following example is for a BSD system: lpr -P printer_name filename Where: printer_name is the name of the Print Queue defined on the Unix host. filename is the name of the file you wish to print.
Appendix D D NetWare Overview • The Print Server must be configured as a valid device on your TCP/IP network. This printing method uses LPR over TCP/IP, not the Netware protocol. • To use NDPS (Novell Distributed Printing Services), the Novell server must be running Novell NetWare 5, and the PCs (clients) must be running IntranetWare Client V2.2. or later. The following procedure is designed to enable Public Access Printing under NDPS.
To start the NDPS Manager in future, enter the following command at the console: LOAD NDPSM then select the NDPS Manager object. To start the NDPS Manager whenever you bring up the server, add a command like the following to your server's AUTOEXEC.NCF file: LOAD NDPSM SerMGR.TeSupp The last item is the name of the NDPS Manager object you wish to load. 9. After creating an NDPS Manager, you can create NDPS printers by using NetWare Administrator, as explained below.
Figure 45 Configure Port Handler 10. In the Host address IP field, enter the IP Address previously assigned to the Print Server device. 11. In the Printer Name field, enter the Logical Port name on the Print Server. (L1 for Port 1, L2 for port 2). 12. Click Finish, then select appropriate drivers for Windows 98 etc as required. 13. The new Printer Agent will now appear in the Printer Agent List window.
