Chapter 6 Novell Host Configuration
160
The drivers used with the Printronix printer can be found at
www.printronix.com. For a driver to be automatically downloaded to
a Windows machine when an NDPS printer is installed, the driver
must be installed into the NDPS Broker Resource Management
Service. See Novell’s documentation for more information.
The NIC can be installed into NDPS using the Novell Printer
Gateway feature of NDPS. Within this Novell Printer Gateway,
various printer connection modes can be used to install the printer
into NDPS. The ones described here are:
• Setup using Forward Jobs to a Queue Mode
• Setup using LPR Mode
• Setup using RPRINTER Mode
Setup Using Forward Jobs to a Queue Mode
In this mode, an NDPS printer agent receives jobs from an NDPS
client, then forwards these jobs to an existing Netware queue. The
Netware queue would then be serviced by the printer in some
manner.
1. The printer must first be set up to service some Netware queue,
either by doing a PSERVER or RPRINTER mode setup from
previous chapters.
2. When setting up the NDPS printer agent, use the Novell
Printer Gateway.
3. Select ((NONE)) for Novell PDS.
4. Select Forward Jobs to a Queue for Port Handler, then
choose the queue used in step 1 above, and note the Caution
statement about the Queue User Name.
5. Select no driver in the Select Printer Drivers dialog, unless you
have a driver installed into the Broker's RMS which is to be
used with the printer.
Any jobs sent to this printer agent will then be forwarded to the
specified queue.
