NOVELL NETWARE OVERVIEW The printer supports the Novell NetWare environment. It is necessary to have NetWare Administrator or Supervisor rights to change the configuration. This guide is for NetWare administrators. It should be read in conjunction with the relevant Novell NetWare manual. The latest Novell service packs and Novell client versions should be installed. Supported Versions and Modes NETWARE VERSION SUPPORTED MODES NetWare 3.11+ Bindery NetWare 4.1+ Bindery and NDS NetWare 5.
PRINTING THE CONFIGURATION PAGE The printer’s configuration page reports information that is required for NetWare configuration. To print a configuration page, while the printer is switched on, depress the NIC’s pushbutton for three seconds and then release. The information that you require is the printer’s Ethernet address. The first six characters of the Ethernet address are the same for all network interfaces.
Gateways translate NDPS queries or commands to printer-specific language that the physical printer can use. This is possible because gateways are configured to know the specific type (make and model) of printer being used. This illustration shows a typical gateway configuration. The NDPS Gateway can be installed from the Oki Network CD under Software Utilities. Please follow on-screen instructions. You will require a drive mapping to the NetWare server that you are installing to.
2. Select this and click [OK] to continue. You will then be presented with the Gateway Configuration Welcome screen, click [Next] again and select Printer Interface Type, either TCP/IP LPR or NetWare IPX and select [Next] to continue. (TCP/IP configuration illustrated.) You will then be requested to enter either the TCP/IP or IPX address, depending on the type of interface selected in the previous screen. If you do not know the address, you are given the option to search on the network.
Press the [Finish] button on the [Summary] screen so the NDPS Printer object has now been created and is configured to use the NDPS Gateway. This is the Printer Control screen for the completed printer. IPRINT iPrint is included in NetWare 6 and is Novell’s next generation of printing software. It is Novell’s implementation of IPP (Internet Printing Protocol).
UNIX OVERVIEW The printer supports many protocols such as LPD, FTP, TELNET, SNMP and IPP, and works within the UNIX environment. To use the network card within the UNIX environment, the following steps are required: CONFIGURATION NETWORK INTERFACE CARD SETTING The first step in installing the network card under UNIX is to set up the IP address, Subnet Mask and Gateway. This section explains one way to set them up from a UNIX workstation.
The Ethernet address (MAC address) 00:80:87:01:00:D2 in the above example can be determined from the network card self-diagnostic test. 3. Use the ping command to confirm the connection with the network interface card. Example: for IP address 192.168.20.127 # ping 192.168.20.127 If there is no reply, there is a problem with the configuration of the IP address (the IP address has already been set manually or dynamically), or with the network.
99 : Exit setup Please select (1- 99)? 5. Type 1 and press the [Enter] key. Perform the following settings: Please select (1- 99)? 1 No. Message Value 1 : TCP/ IP protocol : ENABLE 2 : IP address : 192.168.20.127 3 : Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0 4 : Gateway address : 192.168.20.1 5 : RARP protocol : DISABLE 6 : DHCP/ BOOTP protocol: DISABLE 7 : Auto IP Address : DISABLE 8 : DNS Server (Pri.) : 0.0.0.0 9 : DNS Server (Sec.) : 0.0.0.
OPERATING SYSTEM CONFIGURATION This section explains how to configure a printer for major UNIX operating systems. SUN OS 4.X.X (BSD) CONFIGURATION The following explanation uses Sun OS 4.1.3 and a C7300V2 printer as examples. The absolute path of commands and the configuration method may differ between OS versions, so refer to the workstation manuals for more information. CAUTION! If an incorrect IP Address, Subnet Mask or Gateway is entered, the network may go down or other damage may occur.
4. Register the printer in the /etc/printcap file. Example: for host name c7350, to create a queue called c7350_lp c7350_lp: \ :lp=:rm=c7350:rp=lp:\ :sd=/usr/spool/c7350_lp:\ :lf=/usr/spool/c7350_lp/c7350_lp_errs: c7350_lp:. . . The name of the printer queue lp: . . . . . . . The name of the device used to connect to the printer. Does not need to be specified for a remote machine. rm: . . . . . . . The name of the host of the remote printer. This should be the same as the name added to the /etc/hosts file.
SUN SOLARIS 2.X CONFIGURATION Admintool is normally used to register remote printers on Open Windows. However, it cannot be used here, as the data recipient and queue have the same name. The procedure below must be used for registering a remote printer. If Solaris 2.x is connected to the remote printer for a long period according to the system specifications, errors and forced disconnection may occur.
If there is no reply, there is a problem with the configuration of the IP address (the IP address has already been set manually or dynamically), or with the network. Reset the network interface card settings to default and try to set a temporary IP address. If you still have the problem after resetting the network interface card, consult the network manager. 5. Register the network card as a remote printer server. Example: for host name c7350 (a) Stop the print scheduler.
HP-UX 10.X CONFIGURATION The following example uses HP-UX10.20 and a C7300V2 printer as examples. The absolute path and method of configuring commands may differ in other versions of the OS. Refer to the workstation manual for more details. CAUTION! If an incorrect IP Address, Subnet Mask or Gateway is entered, the network may go down or other damage may occur. Check the address with the network manager. 1. Confirm that the IP address of the printer has been set.
5. If remote spooling is not already enabled on the HP-UX machine, carry out the following configuration. (a) Stop the printer spooler. # /usr/sbin/lpshut (b) Add the following line to the /etc/inetd.conf file and register the remote spooler. printer stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/ rlpdameon –I (c) Restart inetd # /etc/inetd –c 6. Register the remote printer. Example: setting up a queue called c7350_lp to print to host c7350 (a) Register the remote printer.
AIX 4.1.5 CONFIGURATION The following explanation uses AIX4.1.5 and a C7300V2 printer as examples. The absolute path of commands and the method of configuring may differ with the OS version. Refer to the workstation’s manual. CAUTION! If an incorrect IP address is entered, the network may go down or other damage may occur. Configure after consulting the network manager. 1. Log in as [root]. If you do not have superuser rights, the network manager should conduct the configuration. 2.
# startsrc –s lpd # mkitab ‘lpd:2:once:startsrc –s lpd’ 5. Add the print queue using the smit command. (a) Activate the smit command and convert to the item [Add print queue]. # smit mkrque (b) Select [remote] (the printer connected to the remote host) from [Type of connection]. (c) Select [Standard procedure] from Type of remote print. (d) Carry out the following settings in [Add a standard remote print queue]. If the configuration differs from below, configure according to environment.
> lp must be used for printing a file created using the printer driver. > sjis must be used for printing a text file of Shift JIS Kanji code. > euc must be used for the printing a text file of the EUC Kanji code. LOGICAL PRINTER PRINTER FUNCTION lp For direct output sjis For Shift JIS Kanji converted output euc For EUC Kanji converted output > sjis and euc function only as PostScript printers. BSD-based UNIX Print using the lpr command. # lpr –Pc7350_lp test.
Example: To delete a print job (Job ID 456) in the c7350_lp # cancel c7350_lp -456 Verify the printer status using the lpstat command. # lpstat –pc7350_lp The result of lpstat may not be displayed correctly depending on UNIX operating system specification (e.g. Solaris 2.x). FTP printing FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is used for transferring a file with TCP/IP. If the print data is sent to a logical printer via FTP, it is printed. Refer to the workstation’s manual for details of the ftp command.
1. Log in to the network interface card. When printing with ftp, use any values for name and password. However, if the user name is [root], the password set under TELNET or the utility is required. See the appropriate section for details. Example: Logging in with host name c7350 (or IP address 192.168.20.127). # ftp c7350 (or ftp 192.168.20.127) Connected to c7350 220 EthernetBoard 8100e Ver 01.50 FTP Server Name (c7350:) : root 331 Password required.
Example: Changing transfer mode to binary mode and verifying the current mode: ftp> type binary 200 Type set to I. ftp> type Using binary mode to transfer files. ftp> 4. Transfer the print data to the network card using the put command. Two methods of file transfer using the put command are available. Example: Transferring print data test.prn ftp> put test.prn Example: Transferring print data specified by absolute path/users/test/test.prn ftp> put /users/test/test.prn /lp 5.
APPLE MACINTOSH OVERVIEW The printer supports the Apple Macintosh AppleTalk environment. This guide is for administrators and it should be read in conjunction with the relevant Macintosh manual. The latest Macintosh service packs should be installed. SUPPORTED VERSIONS All Macintosh operating systems from OS 8.1 are supported. PRINTING THE CONFIGURATION PAGE The printer’s configuration page reports information that is required for Macintosh configuration.
SETUP UTILITIES FOR MAC OS 8.X AND 9.X Use the Network Card Setup Utility (Macintosh) to assign an IP address and configure the network interface card. For instructions please refer to the Configuration Utility section and on-line help. CONFIGURATION There are three items that need to be configured for EtherTalk. Use EtherTalk Protocol Please check the Use EtherTalk Protocol checkbox. 1. Printer Name 2. Give the Printer Name as you would like it to appear in the Chooser. 3.
Macintosh OS–X The built in network interface card is also supported in the Macintosh OS–X environment. Run the installer on the driver CD to install the printer’s PPD file. In OS–X you need to make sure that AppleTalk is turned on in order to connect to an AppleTalk printer. 1. To switch AppleTalk on, open [System Preferences], click [Network] then click [AppleTalk]. 2.
TROUBLESHOOTING The network addresses used in this manual are shown for example only. Network addresses used in your installation must be generated from your own network. SELF-DIAGNOSTIC TEST PRINTER DOES NOT PRINT Ensure the printer emulation is set to PS or Automatic. NG IS PRINTED IN THE SELF-DIAGNOSTIC TEST OR FLASH ROM CHECK REGISTERS NG Turn the printer off for 15 seconds and then on again. Press the reset button close to the network interface to reinitialize it.
CANNOT PRINT WITH LPR AND FTP Turn the printer off for 15 seconds and then on again. Check there is a response to the ping command. Check the network cable is correctly connected. Change the cable and try again. Check the host name and IP address are configured in the workstation. Check the printer port name is configured in the workstation. There are three port names: lp, euc and sjis. Use lp by default as euc and sjis are specific to PostScript printers.
THE NETWORK INTERFACE IS IDENTIFIED BY THE SETUP UTILITY BUT NOT BY THE NETWARE SERVER Start up the NetWare server and check the NIC configuration. Check the NSAP packet on the NetWare server is not set to Disable. REMOTE SERVER MODE Check the correct print server is operating on the file server. Check the print server name operating on the file server and the print server name set in the NIC are the same.
POSTSCRIPT ERROR OCCURS IF A BANNER PAGE IS PRINTED A PostScript banner page cannot be printed in NetWare 3.12 Remote Printer mode. If a PostScript printer is used and a banner page is printed, PostScript error is displayed. Turn the banner output Off in the client’s printer settings. ETHERTALK NOT IDENTIFIED BY THE CHOOSER AND THE SETUP UTILITY Turn the printer off for 15 seconds and then on again. Check the network cable is correctly connected. Change the cable and try again.
