How to Configure Novell Netware printing
using IPX/SPX
Brother Print Servers allow NetWare client PCs to print jobs on the same printer as TCP/IP
and AppleTalk users. All NetWare jobs are spooled through the Novell server and delivered to
the printer when it is available.
General Information
In order to use a Brother print server on a NetWare network, one or more file servers must be
configured with a print queue that the print server can service. Users send their print requests
to the file server’s print queue, and the jobs are then spooled (either directly, or in the case of
remote printer mode, via an intermediate print server) to the appropriate Brother print server.
The system administrator can create both Bindery and NDS based queues in a single
environment without having to switch between applications. The BRAdmin32 application has
been designed to run on Windows 95/98 and NT 4.0.
✒ Note
You must install the Novell Netware Client 32 if you wish to create queue information on
your Netware servers by BRAdmin32.
If you can’t use BRAdmin32 in your environment, you can create the queue using the
traditional Netware PCONSOLE utility, but you will then also need to use the Brother
BRCONFIG utility, TELNET or a WWW browser to configure the print server as described
later in this chapter.
✒ Note
Brother print servers can service up to 16 file servers and 32 queues.
