Section 5: Setting Up - NetWare AXIS 5400+ User’s Manual

Setup using NDPS

The AXIS 5400+ supports Novell Distributed Print Services (NDPS),

which is Novell’s new generation architecture for printing and printer

administration. You can run NDPS over Pure IP (TCP/IP) or

IPX/SPX.

Before the AXIS 5400+ can be installed, make sure that NDPS is

installed and a Broker is loaded on your NetWare file server.

AXIS 5400+ uses the AXIS NDPS Gateway for printing in networks

using either IP or IPX as transport protocols. The printer gateways are

included with the NDPS software (from version 5.1 and up) and are

automatically installed together with NDPS.

Notes:

Installing the AXIS 5400+ in an NDPS environments

Having assigned an IP address to the AXIS 5400+ as described in

Assigning an IP address, on page 22, you are now ready to install the

AXIS 5400+ for NDPS printing. You can select to install the

connected printers as public or controlled access printers. Follow the

instructions below to install the AXIS 5400+ using NDPS:

Notes:

NDPS requires that you run NetWare 4.11 or higher.

Pure IP is only supported by NetWare 5 or higher.

The HP-JETADMIN parameter of the AXIS 5400+ must be set to YES in order

for the communication between the AXIS 5400+ and the NDPS gateway to be

enabled.

If you do not have an NDPS Manager object available, start out with creating

one in the NetWare Administrator.
