OKI C6000N User Manual

OkiLAN 8300e Network User’s Guide, C6000n and C6100 Series

Novell NetWare  -  98

The OkiLAN print server supports the Novell NetWare environment.

It is necessary to have NetWare Administrator or Supervisor rights 

to change the configuration. This guide is for NetWare 

administrators. It should be read in conjunction with the relevant 

Novell NetWare manual. The latest Novell service packs and Novell 

client versions should be installed.

In NDS, the printer can be configured to work in either print server 

mode or remote printer mode.

Remote Printer Mode requires a connection to be made to a 

workstation running Pserver. Print jobs are received from the file 

server via the NetWare print server. The network interface card 

emulates the workstation on which the NetWare Rprinter operates. 

Remote Printer Mode adds additional traffic to the network and is 

slower than Print Server Mode but does not require any additional 

licenses.

In Print Server Mode, the file server is logged in and the printer 

queue is repeatedly polled to determine whether a print job exists. 

The NetWare print server or workstation where Pserver runs is 

emulated. This enables high speed printing without applying a load 

to the network. Print Server Mode requires a single user NetWare 

license.
