Windows Printing
Windows encompasses a wide range of client versions; from Windows 3.1 to Windows 2000, and thus
a wide range of printing capabilities. The various versions of Windows in combination with the IB-2x
offer the network printing capabilities described below.
>
Via Novell NetWare: Printing to NetWare print queues when a NetWare server is present.
>
Via LPR: Printing to a Windows LPR spooler over TCP/IP.
>
Via IPP: Printing over the Internet or intranet using the Internet Printing Protocol.
>
Via NetBEUI: Peer to Peer printing using the NetBEUI protocol. Printers are available in Network
Neighborhood.
>
Via Windows Printer Sharing: Printing to a shared network printer which is configured on
another Windows machine.
NetWare 4.x and 5.x
NetWare 4.x and 5.x support NetWare Directory Services (NDS) printing. For backwards compatibility,
Bindery based printing is also supported. Print Server mode and Remote Printer mode (see descrip-
tions in the previous section) are supported for NDS, however, only Print Server mode is supported for
Bindery printing.
NetWare 4.x and 5.x NDS or Bindery
1. Run the Quick Setup wizard on the IB-2x CD-ROM.
2. In the NetWare section choose NDS Setup (recommended) or Bindery Setup. All required
NetWare objects are created by the Quick Setup wizard.
3. After running the wizard, wait a couple minutes then use the printer front panel to print the status
pages. Check the IB-2x status page for the NetWare connection information and verify that the
queue status is Ready.
4. Setup the Windows clients to print to the associated NetWare queue (see the Windows Printing
via NetWare section).
