Using a Web Browser for Print Server Management, on page 86.
If both the IPX and IP protocols are enabled in your network and the
print server uses DUAL_STACK (enabled by default) as its network
transport protocol, then IPX will be chosen. To force the print server
to use the IP transport protocol, go to your print server’s web
interface and choose Admin | Detailed View | NetWare and change
the NetWare Transport Protocol from DUAL_STACK to IP_ONLY. Save
and exit when finished.
Note:
Queue-based Printing
Methods
The following overview explains the advantages and limitations of
the two supported queue-based printing methods.
Print Server Mode The AXIS 5570e/AXIS 5670e logs in to a file server(s) and repeatedly
polls the print queues for print jobs. In this fashion, the AXIS
5570e/AXIS 5670e emulates a NetWare print server, which is a
workstation running PSERVER. It provides high printing speed with
low network load and is the recommended mode for medium to large
sized networks. Each print server in PSERVER mode takes one
NetWare user license.
Advantages • High performance:
Limitations • In bindery mode, this printing method requires a NetWare user
licence for each AXIS 5570e/AXIS 5670e to file server link.
Remote Printer Mode The AXIS 5570e/AXIS 5670e acts as Remote Printer for PSERVER.NLM
running on the NetWare file server, or to a dedicated workstation
running PSERVER.EXE. In this fashion, the AXIS 5570e/AXIS 5670e
emulates a workstation running the NetWare remote printer software
RPRINTER, or NPRINTER. This mode is only recommended for small
networks where the number of NetWare user licences is a major
issue.
Pure IP requires that you run NetWare 5 or higher.
