2. Define the Print Queue.
• If a Print Queue already exists for the printer, skip to step 3.
• Select Print Queue Information from the Available Options menu.
• Press INSERT , type a name for the new queue to be serviced by the
NIC and press ENTER . Press ESCAPE to go to the Available Options
Menu.
3. Define the Print Server
• Select Print Server Information from the Available Options menu.
• Press INSERT , type the NIC Print Server name and press ENTER .
The default Print Server name is OTS_ followed by the six-digit serial
number of the NIC, (e.g., OTS_161523)
. The serial number is listed
on the bottom of the NIC and is displayed on the NIC box. If the NIC
has already been installed, the Novell Print Server Name can be
found on the power-up network status page under Novell Network
Information.
4. Define the Printer.
• Press ENTER with the new Print Server Highlighted, select Print
Server Configuration , then select Printer Configuration .
• Select Printer 0 and define a more meaningful name for the printer if
desired. The printer name is displayed in various NetWare printing
messages such as when notifying users that their job is completed.
• Set the TYPE field to Remote/Other Unknown .
• Press ESCAPE to exit and select Yes to save the changes. Press
ESCAPE again to return to the Printer Server Configuration menu.
5. Assign the Print Queue.
• Select Queues Serviced By Printer , highlight the desired printer on
the Defined Printers list and press ENTER .
• Press INSERT to display the Available Queues List. Select the
desired queue and assign a Priority level (recommended choice is 1).
• Press ESCAPE when finished and continue pressing ESCAPE to exit
PCONSOLE.

6. Confirm Successful Configuration.
• Turn the printer off and on and wait for a power-up network status
page to print. If the network is large, the power-up status page may
take several minutes to print. (Note: This time may be reduced by
setting a Preferred File Server for the NIC with the Management
Access Program. Refer to the NetWare section of the Owner's Manual
for more information.)
• The Novell Connection Information in the bottom half of the status
page displays the printer name, file server, queue, etc. If it displays
Attached: Yes , this confirms that the NIC Print Server is ready to accept
print jobs.
• If the status page does not display Attached: Yes , please verify that the
Novell Print Server Name on the status page under Novell Network
Information matches exactly with the Print Server name that was
entered in PCONSOLE or refer to the troubleshooting section in the
Owner's Manual .

NetWare 4.x Configuration
Bindery vs. NDS Setup
In addition to its native NDS (NetWare Directory Services), NetWare 4.x
can also be used in Bindery emulation. Bindery emulation is provided on
the NIC for users more familiar with the NetWare Bindery than with
NDS. If Bindery emulation is preferred, please refer to the NetWare sec-
tion of the Owner's Manual .
PCONSOLE vs. NWADMIN Setup
NetWare 4.x setup can be done with either PCONSOLE or NWADMIN.
This Quick Configuration Guide includes the procedures in PCONSOLE
because fewer steps are required than with NWADMIN. (Not all versions
of NWADMIN Include the Print Services Quick Setup option). If setup
with NWADMIN is preferred, please refer to the NetWare section of the
Owner's Manual .
Configuration Utilities
Use NetWare's PCONSOLE and the Windows-based Management Access
Program (MAP), which is included with the NIC, to complete the configu-
ration.
PCONSOLE Configuration
1. Enter PCONSOLE.
2. Set the Current "Context".
Context is the NetWare term for a specific location in the Directory
Services tree. The current context is displayed in the upper left-hand
corner of the screen. This is where the Print Server, Printer, and
Queue will be located. If this is not the desired context for these
objects, use the following procedure to change the current context.
• Select Change Context from the PCONSOLE main menu.
• Press INSERT to browse to the desired context.
• Highlight the desired context and press F10 .

Windows 95/98 Peer-to-Peer Printing Configuration
What isWindows 95/98 Peer-to-Peer Printing?
The peer-to-peer printing software included with the NIC allows Win-
dows 95/98 PCs to communicate directly with network-attached printers.
A network server, such as NetWare or Windows NT, is not required for
peer-to-peer printing. The peer-to-peer printing software must be
installed on each PC that will use peer-to-peer printing. Once this soft-
ware is installed, all NICs on the network automatically appear in the list
of available printer ports.
The peer-to-peer printing software may be used in networks where serv-
ers are present; however, often the server print services are utilized
instead. Served-based print services offer centralized printing manage-
ment and spooling and do not require software (other than the printer
driver) to be installed on each PC.
Optional: Changing the Print Server Name
The peer-to-peer printing software displays the NetWare Print Server
Name to identify the NIC. The default name is the serial number of the
NIC preceded by OTS_ (e.g., OTS_161752). If desired, this name can be
changed to a more easily identifiable name with either the Management
Access Program (MAP) or with a standard browser.
With the Management Access Program (MAP) :Follow the MAP Config-
uration instructions in the NetWare 4.x Directory Services Configuration
section in this guide (the settings other than NetWare Print Server Name
do not need to be entered). The MAP utility requires a NetWare server to
be present.
With a Browser: Connecting to the NIC with a browser requires the
TCP/IP protocol be loaded on the browser workstation and requires set-
ting an IP address for the NIC. The NIC IP address may be set by follow-
ing the TCP/IP Configuration instructions in the Windows NT
Configuration section in this guide.

11
After setting the NIC's IP parameters, connect to the NIC with the
browser by typing http://<IP address>, (e.g., http://192.42.211.5). At the
NIC Home Page, click on NIC Configuration and follow the MAP config-
uration instructions (beginning with step 3) in the NetWare 4.x Directory
Services Configuration section in this guide (the settings other than Net-
Ware Print Server Name do not need to be entered).
IPX Protocol Installation
The IPX Protocol is required for peer-to-peer printing. IPX is not installed
by default when Windows 95/98 is first installed, but it can be easily
added by using the following procedure.
1. Click on the Windows 95/98 Start button and select Settings , Control
Panel , Network .
2. Check to see if IPX/SPX-compatible protocol is displayed on the list
of network components. If it is on the list, IPX is already installed.
Please continue with the next section. If it is NOT on the list, click on
Add .
3. Double click on Protocol, click on Microsoft, and double click on IPX/
SPX-compatible Protocol. Windows 95/98 will prompt for the
required Windows disks to install the IPX protocol.
4. Once the files are copied, click on OK to close the network control
panel. Windows 95/98 will prompt to restart the system. The IPX
protocol will not be active until the system is restarted.
Peer-to-Peer Printing Software Installation
The peer-to-peer printing software should be installed on each Windows
95/98 or Windows NT 4.0 PC that will use peer to peer printing services.
1. Install and Run the Peer-to-Peer Software.
• Insert the disk included.
• Click on the Windows 95/98 Start button and select Run .
• For IPX: Type <Drive>:\IPX-P2P\SETUP.EXE and click OK .
• For IP: Type <Drive>:\IP-P2P\SETUP.EXE and click OK .

12
• Follow the instructions on the screen to complete installation of the
peer-to-peer printing software.
2. Select the Printer Port.
If the printer driver has not already been installed, please install it
before continuing with the following instructions.
3. Click on the Windows 95 Start button and select Settings , then Print-
ers .
4. Right click the appropriate printer driver and select Properties from
the menu.
5. Select the Details tab and click on the down arrow beside the Print to
the following port: field to display the list of available printers.
6. Select the NIC from the list of ports and click on OK . The NIC is dis-
played by its NetWare Print Server Name. The default name is in the
format OTS_ and the serial number of the NIC (e.g., OTS_167532).
Peer-to-peer printing configuration is complete. Print jobs will now be
directed to the NIC when the current printer driver is used.
NOTE: You must deselect any previously checked ports under Windows
NT 4.0.

13
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP)
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) provides a mecha-
nism for delivering IP configuration parameters, including IP address,
Subnet mask and default gateway, to devices (hosts) on an IP network. A
DHCP server manages the pool of available IP addresses and grants
device requests for an IP address.
At power-up, the NIC broadcasts a DHCP request for an IP address. If a
DHCP server is present the request will be processed, and an IP address
will be returned to the NIC. Upon receipt of the IP address, the NIC
resets, and prints a network status page. The network status page will list
the new IP address (and Subnet mask and default gateway). Once an IP
address has been assigned to the NIC, it will no longer broadcast DHCP
requests.
Therefore, NIC IP address assignment with DHCP will only
work when the NIC does not have an existing IP address.
The DHCP server may grant a temporary IP address, called a temporary
lease or temporary reservation, which expires after a period, or may grant
a permanent or unlimited lease or reservation which does not expire.
Devices that are granted a temporary lease will be notified before the
lease expires and asked if they would like to extend the lease. The NIC
will continue extending its lease indefinitely (unless prohibited by your
DHCP server configuration) and thus maintain a consistent IP address.
IMPORTANT: If the NIC is not turned on or is not connected to the net-
work during the period when the DHCP server is sending requests to
extend the lease, the lease will not be extended. The DHCP server will
cancel the lease and may assign the IP address to another device. There-
fore, it is highly recommended that you explicitly specify the NIC lease as
permanent or unlimited in your DHCP server configuration.
If you prefer not to use DHCP for IP address assignment, it may be dis-
abled with the MAP utility or by connecting to the NIC address with a
browser. The enable/disable DHCP setting may be found in the Setup
TCP/IP section under the Protocols heading.

14
Windows NT Configuration
There are several options for setting up printing in a Windows NT envi-
ronment.
• If a NetWare server is present, NetWare print services may be used by
following the NetWare Configuration instructions in this guide.
• Peer-to-peer print services may be used by following the Windows
95/98 instructions in this guide, but are only available for Windows
NT 4.x, not for Windows NT 3.51. Peer-to-peer print services use the
IPX protocol and may be preferable when TCP/IPsetup is not desired.
• LPR print services may be used via TCP/IP by following the instruc-
tions in this section.
Windows NT printing is very flexible.You can configure the individual
Windows NT or Windows 95/98 workstations to print using a different
protocol than the Windows NT server. For example, a Windows NT
server could be configured to print to a NIC via TCP/IP using the instruc-
tions in this section. The NIC could then be designated as shared on the
NT server, allowing workstations to print via the NT server using a differ-
ent protocol (such as the default NetBEUI). The optimum Windows NT
printing configuration depends upon the particular environment and
user and administrator experience and preferences. Generally, the LPR
printing over TCP/IP covered in the following instructions is the best
choice for environments where TCP/IP is already in use.
TCP/IP Required Components
The Windows NT system performing the NIC configuration must have
the TCP/IP protocol installed. The following steps describe how to check
for and, if necessary, add the required TCP/IP components.
Windows NT 3.51
1. In the Program Manager group Main, double click on Control Panel.
2. Double click on Network and check the list of Installed Network Soft-
ware for the following three components:
• Microsoft TCP/IP Printing
• Simple TCP/IP Services
• TCP/IP Protocol

15
3. If any of these components are missing, click on Add Software, select
TCP/IP Protocol and related components and click on Continue.
4. Select TCP/IP Network Printing Support and Simple TCP/IP Ser-
vices and click Continue.
5. After all necessary files are copied, click on OK to close the Network
Settings dialog and restart the system when prompted. The new pro-
tocol and/or services will not be available until the system is
restarted.
Windows NT 4.0
1. Click on the Windows Start button; select Settings and Control
Panel.
2. Double click on Network and select the Protocols tab. If TCP/IP Pro-
tocol is not in the list of Network Protocols, click on Add to install it.
3. Select the Services tab. If either Microsoft TCP/IP Printing or Simple
TCP/IP Services is not on the list of Network Services, click on Add to
install them.
4. Click on Close when all protocols and services have been added. If
the TCP/IP protocol has just been added, Windows will prompt for
the IP address and other TCP/IP parameters. The new protocols and
services will not be available until the system is restarted.
NICTCP/IP Configuration
A utility called BOOTPL32 is used to configure the IP parameters on the
NIC. Note that the BOOTPLite utilities (e.g., BOOTPL32) will not work on
a system configured as a DHCP server.
1. Insert the disk included.
2. In the Windows NT 3.51 Program Manager, select File and choose
Run.
In Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 95/98, click on the Windows Start
button and select Run.
3. Type <Drive>:\BOOTPL\BOOTPL32.EXE and click OK to launch the
utility.
4. Select Configure from the Admin menu.
• Enter the IP parameters.

16
• Enter the IP address to assign to the NIC.
• Enter the Subnet mask. If unsure of the correct Subnet mask and the
first number in the NIC's IP address is from 192 to 254, then use
255.255.255.0 as the Subnet mask.
• Enter the Default Gateway address (the router's IP address) or leave
blank.
• Enter the Hardware address of the NIC. This address is listed on the
power-up network status page under NetworkAddress, for example,
00:40:af:13:c9:f0. Please enter it as it appears on the status page. The
status pages (a printer status page and a NIC network status page)
may also be printed by pressing the Status key on the front panel of
the printer.
5. Click on Go to send the new settings to the NIC. After a few minutes
(usually between 1 and 2 minutes, but possibly up to 5 minutes on
very large or busy networks), the NIC will reset and print its network
status page. The new IP parameters will be listed in the TCP/IP Net-
work Information section of the status page. If the status page
doesn't print, recheck the Hardware Address entry in NTBOOTP. (If
the power-up status page has been disabled, press the Status key on
the printer's front panel.) Once the status page prints, the new IP
address may also be verified by selecting Verify from the Admin
menu.
Setting Up LPR Printing
If the printer driver has not already been installed, please install it before
continuing. In the following instructions, some field or dialog names may
vary depending on the NT release pack in use.
Windows NT 3.51
1. In the Program Manager group Main, open the Control Panel and
double click on Printers.
2. Highlight the appropriate printer and select Properties from the
Printer menu.
3. Select Other from the list of ports displayed in the Print to: dialog,
then select LPR port from the list of Print Destinations.

17
4. In the Name or address of host providing lpd: field, enter the IP
address of the NIC (that was assigned with NTBOOTP).
5. In the Name of printer or print queue on that server: field, enter any
desired port name, (e.g., LPR1) and click OK to return to the Printer
Properties dialog.
6. If the printer is to be shared, click on the checkbox next to Share this
printer on the network. Click on OK when finished.
Windows NT 4.0
1. Click on the Start Button and select Settings, and then Printers.
2. Right click on the appropriate printer and select Properties.
3. On the Ports tab, click on Add Port.
4. Double click on LPR Port in the list of available printer ports.
5. In the Name or address of host providing lpd: field, enter the IP
address of the NIC (that was assigned with NTBOOTP).
6. In the Name of printer or print queue on that server: field, enter
PORT1 (upper case) and click on OK.
7. Click on Close to close the Printer Ports dialog. The NIC IPaddress is
now displayed and currently selected on the list of ports.
8. If the printer is to be shared, click on the Sharing tab, select Shared
and enter the Share name. Click on OK when finished.
Selecting a Shared Printer
This section briefly describes the steps for setting up client access to a
shared printer.
•Windows 95/98: In the Printer Properties on the Details tab, click the
Add Port button and browse the network for the shared printer.
•Windows NT 3.51: Select Connect to Printer from the Printer menu in
Print Manager and choose the shared printer from the shared printers
list.
•Windows NT 4.0: Add a new printer (with Add Printer), select Net-
work Printer Server rather than My Computer and choose the shared
printer from the shared printers list.

18
UNIX Configuration
UNIX printing uses a line printer daemon (lpd) to direct jobs to the
printer. The NIC supports two modes of lpd printing, host-based lpd and
printer-based lpd. With host-based lpd, the line printer daemon is run on
one or more workstations (hosts) where print jobs are accepted and sent
to the NIC. With printer-based lpd, the NIC acts as the line printer dae-
mon host and accepts print jobs directly. Many UNIX systems allow
either lpd mode to be used, although configuration may be easier for one
of the modes depending on the UNIX system. Following are some advan-
tages and disadvantages of each mode:
• Banner Page Comparison: The host-based lpd can include the user
name and file name on the banner page, while the print-based lpd can
only include the host name.
• Configuration Comparison: The host-based lpd requires configura-
tion on each host that will be sending jobs to the printer, while the
printer-based lpd requires only the NIC to be configured.
NIC Configuration
TCP/IP configuration of the NIC is needed for all versions of UNIX. Lpd
configuration depends upon the mode selected and the UNIX system in
use. Please refer to the Owner's Manual for lpd configuration instructions
for a particular UNIX system.
Setting the IP Address
You may set the NIC IP address with the following utilities:
• MAP utility when a NetWare server is present
• UNIX bootp daemon
• rarp
• arp
The following instructions use arp. Directions on using the other methods
are included in the Owner's Manual.
1. Press the Status key on the front panel of the printer with the NIC, or
if the printer is off, turn it on and wait for the power-up network sta-
tus page to print.

19
2. Add an entry to the hosts file (usually etc/hosts) that includes the
printer's name and the IP address. For example, to name the printer
and associate it with an IP address of 197.42.211.5, place the following
entry in the hosts file:
197.42.211.5 <PrinterName>
3. At the UNIX command prompt, type:
arp -s <desired_IP_address> <NIC_Ethernet_address>
(The Ethernet address is listed on the network status page as Network
Address.) For example, arp -s 197.42.211.5 00-40-AF-13-
A2-70
4. At the UNIX command prompt, type: ping <desired_IP_address>
For example, ping 197.42.211.5 The NIC will not respond to this ping
command, but will read the IP address.
5. After a few minutes (usually between 1 and 2 minutes, but possibly
up to 5 minutes on very large or busy networks), the NIC will reset
and print its network status page. The new IP address will be listed
in the TCP/IP Network Information section. If the status page
doesn't print, recheck the NIC's Ethernet address entry in the arp
command. Once the status page prints, the new IP address may also
be verified with the ping command.
Setting OtherTCP/IP Parameters
Once the IP address is set, the NIC can be configured via telnet or with a
standard web browser. The following steps describe configuration with a
standard browser. For instructions of configuring via telnet, refer to the
Owner's Manual.
1. In the browser, connect to http://<NIC_IP_address>
For example, http://197.42.211.5
2. At the NIC's Home Page, click on NIC Configuration.
3. Many of the configuration options are password protected. The
default password is: sysadm The password is case sensitive. To
change the password, select Change Password in the System column.

20
4. Select Setup TCP/IP in the Protocols column and change the settings
as appropriate. If unsure of the correct Subnet mask, and the first
number in the NIC's IP address is from 192 to 254, then use
255.255.255.0 as the Subnet mask. The Base Port Number displayed is
one less than the printer's actual port number, this for the default of
9100, the Base Port Number is set to 9099. Host-based lpd requires a
port number of 10001, therefore, if using host-based lpd, change the
Base Port Number to 10000.
5. Type the sysadm password in the appropriate box and click Accept
Settings. After a few seconds, the screen should report that the
update was successful. Click the Back Arrow icon twice to return to
the NIC Configuration page.
6. Optional: Click on Configure Status Page in the Printer column to
define power-up status page settings, (e.g., disabling the power-up
status page).
7. The changes made to the NIC do not take effect until the unit is reset.
Click on Reset in the System column and click Reset Unit. After a
few seconds the screen should report that the unit was reset.
TCP/IP configuration is now complete.
