Before Installation

We recommend writing down the following parameters from the Setup Section in Chapter 2. Refer to them during the installation procedure.
Default Server Name: ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ ____ Default Printer Name: ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ _ ___

Choose PSERVER or RPRINTER

The printer server is capable of operating as a PSERVER, RPRINTER or simultaneously as both. Choose the best configuration to meet your needs.
Using the Emulex printer server as a Novell Print Server (PSERVER):
replaces the need for a dedicated Novell PSERVER
provides faster throughput than using the printer server as an RPRINTER
operating through a Novell PSERVER
occupies one user slot per attached file server
supports encrypted or unencrypted passwords
Using the Emulex printer server as a Novell Remote Printer (RPRINTER):
requires a Novell PSERVER module somewhere on the network
provides slower throughput than using the printer server as a PSERVER
occupies one user slot
uses the PSERVER module to handle passwords

Logging into the Printer Server

You can log into the printer server remotely from a Novell workstation using the TES terminal emulation program and the Kermit protocol or locally from a console terminal. These methods are described below.
Remote Login
Novell workstations require the TES terminal emulation program and the Kermit protocol in order to perform a remote login to the printer server
TES can be loaded at any DOS prompt or from the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. TES must be loaded before starting the Kermit program. These files are available on the CD-ROM or on the DOS utilities diskette.
TES TSR program that provides NetWare terminal
transport to enable access to the remote console facility under NetWare.
MS-DOS Kermit Terminal emulator which is used in conjunction
with TES. INSTALL DOS Installation script for the printer servers. READ.ME Readme file for using TES with Emulex Printer
servers. For more information, examine the
read.me file.
The following procedure installs the TES and Kermit software on the system and establishes a connection to the printer server:
1) Login to a Novell workstation.

Define the Preferred Novell NetWare File Server
Upon power up, the Emulex printer server normally goes through fileservers in the bindery to find the first available fileserver with configuration information. In a large network this may create unnecessary traffic and take some time. Use the following to specify a direct attachment to the Novell file server node that contains the configuration information.
1) Log in to the printer server with supervisor privilege.
2) Enter:
Server>> define node node_name nfserver
>
node_name The preferred NetWare file server node name

>
|auto |3.x |4.x]
choose one of the following keywords:
disable disables the NetWare protocol on this printer server auto enables both bindery and NDS modes
3.x enables bindery mode
4.x enables NDS mode
The default is auto.
