5. NetWare Network
5.1 System Architecture
We implemented the NetWare printer sharing
functionality into the HPS3P, to allow one or more
printers attached to the print server to be connected to
your network. The HPS3P can support both the NetWare
print server and remote printer functions:
The embedded print server, which emulates the “queue
management functionality” of the NetWare print server, is
the PSERVER program running on the NetWare server. A
user first prints a job at a workstation, the job is routed to
a NetWare server. The NetWare server then stores the
job in a print queue and the print server gets the print job
from the queue to the printer on your network.

The embedded remote printer allows a printer to function
identically to a DOS workstation running
NPRINTER.EXE program without the DOS workstation.
A user first prints a job at a workstation; the job is routed
to a NetWare server; then the NetWare server stores the
job in a print queue and the print server moves the print
job from the queue to the remote printer and then to the
printer.

The advantages of embedding the NetWare network
printing functionality in the print server include:
Quick and easy installation.
Easy network management.
Enhanced printing performance.
Relief of NetWare’s file server burden.
The HPS3P can operate either in print server mode or in a
remote printer mode. Each print server should log into a
NetWare server before servicing the print jobs. Each print
server will occupy a user account with which it can log
into the NetWare server. A remote printer will not log
into a NetWare server; it will connect to a NetWare print
server and get the print jobs from the print server. A
remote printer does not occupy any user account. A
NetWare print server can control many remote printers;
thus a print server account can be shared to many remote
printers. The printing performance of a remote printer
will be slower than a print server‘s performance, because
a remote printer does not get a print job directly from the
print queue. The remote printer gets its print job from
the print server.
The Advantages of a Print Server
- Easy configuration.
- Better printing performance.
The Advantage of a Remote Printer
- Save user licenses.
5.2 NetWare 3.x Installation & Setup
Once your print server is connected to your Ethernet
network, you can set it up for use with your networking
software. There are two methods you can use to do this
easily:
Please note that, you need install the IPX protocol before
continuing to install the print server.
1. In a DOS environment or DOS Windows, use the
“INSTALL” quick-installation program found on the
<CD-ROM Drive>\DOSUTIL of CD-ROM included with
the print server.
2. In a DOS environment or DOS Windows box, use the
“PSETUP” configuration program found on the included
<CD-ROM Drive>\DOSUTIL; configure the print server
to use a particular file server. Then, use NetWare’s
PCONSOLE program to create a NetWare print server and
print queue with the appropriate names.
5.2.1 Quick Installation Using the “Install” program
The INSTALL program included on the CD-ROM can be
used to quickly set up the HPS3P for use with the
NetWare environment. It can only be used to set up the
print server in Printer Server mode; it cannot be used to
configure the print server in Remote Printer mode. The
HPS3P handles changing the print server’s internal
settings, the creation of the NetWare print server and
print queue objects on the file server as well as the
assignment of the print server to the queue. Unless you
need to configure the NetWare settings to conform to
special requirements for your network, you can use the
quick installation method.
To use this method,
1. Log into your NetWare server as SUPERVISOR.
2. Insert the CD-ROM included with the print server, and
change to the appropriate drive and directory. Ex.
e:\dosutil\
3. Run the INSTALL program.
4. Select your new print server from the displayed list
and press Enter. The name listed will be the same as the
Device Name printed on the back label of your print
server.
5. A list of defaults will be displayed. If you need to
change any of these items, use the arrow keys to choose
the item you need to change, then press Enter to display a
list of choices. When all of the values are correct, select
the Continue Installation item and press Enter.
6. The quick installation program will not only set up the
print server, but also create and setup all required objects
on the file server. When setup is complete, it will display
an execution command that you can run after logging into
the file server to redirect print commands to the new print
server.
capture /S=III /Q=PRINTSERVER_Q1 /nt /nff /nb /l=1
/ti=10
This command redirects the LPT1 port (/l=1) to the print
queue PRINTSERVER_Q1 on the file server named III.
No banner page will be printed (/nb); no form feed will
be added to the end of the job (/nff); and tabs will not be
expanded into spaces (/nt). If the program does not
explicitly signal end-of-job, the capture facility will wait
10 seconds (/ti=10) before assuming that the print job is
complete.
7. Reset the print server to have the changes take effect.
Before printing, you may want to verify that the setup
was complete. Using the Print Server Status option of
the PSETUP command (as described in the following
section), you can verify that the print server is connected
to the right file server and is using the correct network
frame type.
You may also want to use the NetWare PCONSOLE
program to verify that:
A NetWare print server and one, two, or three print
queue(s) have been created on the file server. The number
of print queues created is equal to the number of printer
ports on your print server.
Printer 0 (or Printer 1, Printer 2) on the print server is
serving the new print queue(s).
The print queue(s) and print server have the right
permissions and notification settings.
For more detailed information, consult your NetWare
manual.
5.2.2 Installation Using PSETUP
5.2.2.1 Configuring in Print Server Mode

server, or you can use an alias name you have assigned
using PSETUP.
17. Press Enter to select the newly created print server.
18. Select “Print Server Configuration.”
19. Select “Printer Configuration.”
20. Select Printer 0 (or Printer 1, Printer 2), and press
Enter, then select Parallel LPT1 (or LPT2, LPT3) in the
Type field. If your print server has only one port, you do
not need to configure this Type field.
21. Press Escape, and answer Yes to the Save Changes
question.
22. Select Queues Serviced by Printer, then select
Printer 0 (or Printer 1, Printer 2) and press Enter.

priority number for the queue service, or press Enter to
accept the default.
24. Repeatedly press Escape to exit the PCONSOLE
program.
25. Reset the print server to have the changes take effect.
NOTE: If the print server you have is with multiple
printer connectors, you may create multiple print queues
and printer objects.
Your print server should now be ready to use. You
should be able to redirect printing to your print server
using a CAPTURE command like the one shown in the
previous section.
5.2.2.2 Configuring as a Remote Printer Mode
The remote printer feature is not available for some print
server models. Make sure that you have created the
NetWare print server with Type Remote using
PCONSOLE utility before you configure the print server.

question.
14. Select Queues Serviced by Printer, then select
Printer 0 and press Enter.
15. Press Insert and add your newly created print queue
to the list of queues serviced by the printer. Enter a
priority number for the queue service, or press Enter to
accept the default.
16. Repeatedly press Escape to exit the PCONSOLE
program.
17. You must now load the NetWare print server on the
NetWare file server so that the print server configured as
a remote printer can connect to that print server and
service the print jobs. To load the NetWare print server,
type “LOAD PSERVER.NLM PrintServer” at the system
console of the NetWare file server where the PrintServer
is the print server name newly created by the PCONSOLE
program.
To configure the print server as a NetWare remote printer,
perform the following steps:
1. From a workstation, log in to your NetWare server as
SUPERVISOR.
2. Run the PSETUP program included on the CD-ROM.
(ex. e:\dosutil\psetup.exe)
3. Select your new print server from the list provided.
4. Choose NetWare Configuration from the menu.

confirm that the changes should be saved, and exit
PSETUP.
9. At this point the print server setup is complete.
10. Reset the print server to let the changes take effect.
5.3 NetWare 4.x/5.x Installation & Setup
This chapter explains how to configure your print server
for operation with NetWare 4.x/5.x file servers and
clients using NDS (NetWare Directory Services). If you
need to install NetWare 4.x/5.x bindery mode network
printing, please refer to the previous chapter. The
installation procedure is the same as NetWare 3.x.
How NetWare 4.x/5.x is Different
Novell NetWare version 3.x uses a database called
bindery for storing information such as user and group
information, server configuration, and information about
network services. Each NetWare 3.x file server has its
own bindery, which is administrated separately from
other file servers using commands such as SYSCON,
PCONSOLE, and so on.
NetWare version 4.x/5.x improved on the bindery concept
by introducing NDS, NetWare Directory Services. NDS is
a tree-structured directory that is shared by a group of
file servers on a network, allowing centralized
administration and easy coordination of users,
permissions, and resources between servers.
To make it possible for NetWare 4.x/5.x servers to
coexist with NetWare 3.x servers, NetWare 4.x/5.x
supports bindery emulation, which makes parts of the
NDS directory visible to NetWare 3.x clients, just as if
the information were stored in a NetWare 3.x bindery.
This allows clients to access NetWare 4.x/5.x servers
without being upgraded to the NetWare 4.x/5.x software,
and for 3.x and 4.x/5.x servers to be mixed on a network.
Your print server can operate either in bindery mode or
NDS mode. Bindery mode works with NetWare 3.x
servers and with NetWare 4.x/5.x servers using bindery
emulation. NDS mode works with NetWare 4.x/5.x
servers.
NOTE: Though the print server supports both bindery
mode and NDS mode, it cannot support both modes at the
same time. If you are using both NetWare 3.x and 4.x/5.x
servers, you need to set up the print server to use bindery
mode. If you need to install NetWare 4.x/5.x bindery
mode network printing, please refer to the previous
chapter. The installation procedure is the same as
NetWare 3.x.
5.3.1 Quick Installation Using “Install” program
The INSTALL program included on the CD-ROM can be
used to quickly set up the print server for use. It can only
be used to set up the print server in Server mode; it
cannot be used to configure the print server in Remote
Printer mode. To use this method,
1. Log in to your NetWare server as ADMIN.
2. Insert the CD-ROM and change to the appropriate
drive and directory. Ex. e:\dosutil\
3. Run the INSTALL program with the “NDS” option.
E :\dosutil\install /NDS
4. Choose your new print server from the displayed list
and press Enter. The name listed will be the same as the
Device Name printed on a label of your print server.
5. A list of defaults will be displayed. If you need to
change any of these items, use the arrow keys to choose
the item you need to change, then press Enter to display a
list of choices. When all of the values are correct, select
the Continue Installation item and press Enter.
The Current Tree and Current Context settings cannot be
changed within the INSTALL program. If you need to
change the tree or context where the print server will be
installed, use the CX command to change them before
starting the INSTALL program.
6. The quick installation program will not only set up the
print server but also create and setup all required objects
on the network. When the setup is complete, it will also
display an execution command that you can run after
logging in to the file server to redirect print commands to
the new print server.
7. Reset the print server to have the changes take effect.
NOTE: The print server may require up to a minute
after power-up to log into a NetWare Directory Services
context because of the large number of the calculations
NDS security requires.
5.3.2 NetWare 4.x/5.x Installation Using PSETUP
5.3.2.1 Configuring in Print Server Mode
For more complex setup requirements, you can use the
PSETUP program in conjunction with the NetWare
PCONSOLE program.
To install the print server using NetWare Directory
Services (NDS) mode:
1. Log into your NetWare server as ADMIN.
2. Run the PSETUP program included on the print server
CD-ROM. (ex. e:\dosutil\psetup.exe)
3. Select your new print server from the list provided.
4. Choose NetWare Configuration from the menu.
5. Select Print server in the Printing mode field.
6. Change Alias name if you want.
7. Set the NDS tree and NDS context where the print
server will be located. Do NOT set a Primary file server,
as that would force the use of bindery mode.
8. Press Escape to exit the Print Server Configuration
screen, confirm that the changes should be saved, and exit
PSETUP.
9. Run the NetWare PCONSOLE program.
10. Change the current context, if necessary, using the
Change Context menu selection.
11. Choose Quick Setup from the menu.
12. Enter the print server name (either the PSxxxxxx
name or an alias name you have assigned) in the Print
server field.
13. Assign printer and print queue names.
14. Set the Banner type to PostScript if you are using a
PostScript printer, and to Text otherwise.
15. Press F10 to save the new configuration.
16. Reset the print server to have the changes take effect.
NOTE: The print server may require up to a minute
after power-up to log into a NetWare Directory Services
context because of the large number of calculations NDS
security requires.
Your print server should now be ready for use by
workstation users. You should be able to redirect printing
to your print server using a CAPTURE command.
5.3.2.2 Configuring in Remote Printer Mode
This remote printer feature is not available for our
10/100Mbps 3-port models. Make sure that you have
created the NetWare print server with Type Remote using
the PCONSOLE utility before you configure the print
server. For more detailed information about PCONSOLE,
please refer to NetWare‘s manual. You can set up the
NetWare print server, print queue and printer objects by
following the steps below:
1. Run the NetWare PCONSOLE program.
2. Change the current context, if necessary, using the
Change Context menu selection.
3. Choose Quick Setup from the menu.
4. Enter the print server name in the Print server field.
5. Assign printer and print queue names.
6. Set the Banner type to PostScript if you are using a
PostScript printer, and to Text otherwise.
7. Set the Location to Manual Load.
8. Press F10 to save the new configuration and return to
the main menu.
9. Choose the Printers menu.
10. Select your newly created Printer from the Printers
list.
11. You can view or edit the Printer number from 0 to
255.
12. Save the new configuration and exit PCONSOLE.
You must load the NetWare print server on the NetWare
file server so that the print server configured as a remote
printer can connect to the print server and service the
print jobs. To load the NetWare print server, type “LOAD
PSERVER.NLM PrintServer” in the system console of the
NetWare file server; PrintServer is the print server name
newly created by the PCONSOLE program.
To configure the print server as a NetWare remote printer,
perform the following steps:
1. Log in to your NetWare server as ADMIN.
2. Run the PSETUP program included on the CD-ROM.
ex: e:\dosutil\psetup.exe
3. Select your new print server from the list provided.
4. Choose NetWare Configuration from the menu.
5. Select Remote Printer in the Printing mode field.
6. Type the print server’s name in the Print server field.
The print server that is being configured as a remote
printer now will service the printer.
7. Type the printer number assigned in PCONSOLE in
the Printer Number field.
8. Press Escape to exit the NetWare Configuration screen,
confirm that the changes should be saved, and exit
PSETUP.
9. Reset the HPS3P to have the changes take effect.
6. UNIX System Network
6.1 Introduction
The print server is available for TCP/IP printing through
the Unix lpd (Line Printer Daemon) protocol. The lpd
protocol originated with Unix release is based on the BSD
version of Unix and supported under most versions of
Unix.
This chapter explains how to configure the print server
for TCP/IP operation, and how to modify configuration
files on your Unix system to allow printing to the print
server. The configuration examples in this manual follow
the syntax for BSD based Unix systems. Please refer to
the related system documentation for the correct syntax of
your systems.
To configure the print server for lpd printing, perform the
following procedures below:
1. Enable the HPS3P’s TCP/IP Support.
2. Set the HPS3P’s IP address.
3. Verify the HPS3P’s IP Address.
4. Configure remote lpd printing on the host.
5. Print a test page.
In the next section, we will describe these five procedures
in depth.
6.2 Enable Print Server’s TCP/IP Support
The default configuration of the HPS3P has TCP/IP
support enabled. You can configure the HPS3P to enable
TCP/IP support using the configuration program or
PSETUP program on the CD-ROM included with the
HPS3P.
6.3 Setup the HPS3P’s IP Address
The print server must have a unique IP address in order to
be recognized by the network.
You can set up the IP address on various Unix systems
using any one of the following methods:
1. ARP & Ping Assignment (Recommand for Unix)
2. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
3. BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol)
4. RARP (Reverse Address Resolution Protocol)
The print server will use the last three methods to obtain
its IP address automatically if its IP address is configured
as Auto (0.0.0.0).
6.3.1 ARP & Ping Assignment
You can use ARP and Ping commands with a web
browser to complete print server’s IP address setting.
Parameters for the commands are as follows:
arp –s <IP Address> <Ethernet ID>
ping <IP Address>
For example, a print server with the following
configuration:
Node ID: 0000B4010101
(the Node ID is printed on the rear side of the print
server)
Assign IP address: 203.66.191.12
arp –s 203.66.191.12 00-00-B4-01-01-01
ping 203.66.191.12
In the meantime, your HPS3P IP will “temporarily”
be set to 203.66.191.12 (will restore after reboot).
Therefore, you need to run your web browser to set a
permanent IP address (refer to section 8.3.7 for
detailed IP configuration).
6.3.2 DHCP
There are many Unix systems that support the DHCP
protocol nd the procedures to configure the DHCP
server database are different. This manual does not
describe the DHCP server configuration on Unix
systems. It is highly recommended that the DHCP
server should be located on the same network as the
HPS3P.
6.3.3 BOOTP
If you have the BOOTP daemon, bootpd, running on
your UNIX system which is accessible to the print
server, you can use the BOOTP protocol to set up the
IP address of the print server. We recommend that
the BOOTP server should be located on the same
subnet as the print server. If you use Network
Information Services (NIS) in your system, you may
need to rebuild the NIS map with the BOOTP
services before doing the following BOOTP
configuration. To rebuild the NIS map, please refer
to your system documentation.
To configure the IP address data for the BOOTP
server, you will need to log in as the host of the
BOOTP server with superuser (root) admin rights.
Perform the following steps to add address entries:
1. Optionally, assign a name corresponding to the print
server’s IP address. You can add this address to the
/etc/hosts file, by adding the following line:
203.66.191.12 pserver
2. Add an entry to the host’s /etc/bootptab file, similar to
the following:
hostname:\
:ht=1:\
:ha=print_server_ethernet_address:\
:ip=print_server_ip_address:
Lines should be indented with tabs.
Where hostname is the device name of the HPS3P;
the ht=1 tag specifies that the hardware type is
Ethernet. The ha= tag specifies that the Ethernet
address of the HPS3P is the Node ID located on the
print server. The ha tag must be preceded by the ht
tag. The ip= tag should correspond to the IP address
you want to assign to the print server.
For example, below is an example of a print server
with the following configuration:
Node ID: 0000B4010101 (this implies Ethernet
address is 0000B4010101),
IP address: 203.66.191.12
The entry for this print server in the /etc/bootptab
file should be:
PS010101:\
:ht=1:\
:ha=0000B4010101:\
:ip=203.66.191.12:
6.3.4 RARP
The procedure below enables the RARP daemon
running on your system to respond to a RARP
request from the print server and assign an IP
address to the print server.
1. Log in the host of RARP server as the superuser (root).
2. Assign a name corresponding to the print server ’s IP
address. You can add this address to the /etc/hosts file,
by adding a line such as:
203.66.191.12 pserver
3. Add the Ethernet address and the host name for the
print server to the /etc/ethers file, by adding a line like:
00:00:B4:01:01:01 pserver
The Ethernet address of the print server is the Node
ID located on the print server.
4. If your system uses Network Information Services
(NIS), you will need to make changes to the NIS host and
its databases.
5. Check if the RARP daemon is running using the ps and
grep commands. If the RARP daemon is not running on
your host, type “rarpd -a” to run the RARP server.
6.4 Verify the HPS3P’s IP Address
To verify that your print server is responding to the
newly assigned IP address, use a PING command to
check the HPS3P’s response:
ping ip-address
6.5 Configure Remote lpd Printing on the Host
You can use this procedure to configure your Unix host(s)
to allow printing to your network. The procedure below
can be used for Unix variants that are related to BSD
Unix, like SunOS or Linux. For other versions of Unix,
consult your system documentation, keeping in mind that:
1. The print server should be treated as a BSD networked
print server host.
2. The host name should be the name (or IP address) that
you have assigned to the print server.
3. The printer name (or queue name) on the remote host
should be lpt1, lpt2 or lpt3, the name of the parallel port
on the print server.
You will need to perform the tasks below, logged in as
the superuser (root). To configure your Unix host for
printing,
1. Optionally, assign a name corresponding to the print
server’s IP address. You can add this address to the
/etc/hosts file, by adding the following line:
203.66.191.186 pserver
2. Create a spool directory for the printer in the same
directory where spool directories are normally kept on the
machine, such as /var/spool or /var/spool/lpd:
mkdir /var/spool/lpd/pserverd
chown daemon /var/spool/lpd/pserverd
chgrp daemon /var/spool/lpd/pserverd
chmod 775 /var/spool/lpd/pserverd
3. Add an entry to the host’s /etc/printcap file, similar to
the following:
printer-name:\
:lp=:\
:rm=203.66.191.186:\
:rp=lpt1:\
:lf=/var/spool/lpd/pserverd.log:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/pserverd:\
:mx#0:
Lines should be indented with tabs. More than one printer
name can be used, with variants separated by vertical bars
(name1|name2).
The rm= entry should correspond to the IP address you
have assigned to the print server. You can also use a host
name if you have one assigned in the /etc/hosts file.
The sd= entry should correspond to the spool directory
you created in the previous step.
The rp= entry should correspond to the port name of the
remote printer. The values should be one of lpt1, lpt2 or
lpt3 depending on the which printer port your printer is
attached to (for multiple port print servers).
The print server should now be available for printing
from your Unix host.
6.6 Print a Test Page
To print to the print server, you can use the lpr command:
lpr -Pprinter-name file ...
or, you can use the lp command on SCO Open Server:
lp –d printer-name file ...
Where printer-name is one of the names for the printer in
the /etc/printcap file, which you created in the previous
step.
Consult your system documentation for more information
about printer configuration and administration and about
lpr and other printing commands.m
7. Configuration Utility
7.1 Introduction
This chapter introduces the HPS3P’s system configuration
utility in a Windows environment. This utility is
automatically installed during the Windows Administrator
Utility installation procedure - refer to section 3.2 and
3.3.
This utility provides complete management and
configuration functions for the print server. This utility
only provides configuration functions for the HPS3P
itself; it does not include configuration functions for
client side or other file server or NetWare server in the
network environment.
The Configuration Utility provides the following
configuration and management functions:
General: General Information of print server
PrintServer Status: PrintServer Network Status
Printer Status: Attached Printer Status
IP Cfg: IP Address Configuration
NW PS Cfg: NetWare Print Server Configuration
NW RP Cfg: NetWare Remote Printer Configuration
NW Information: NetWare Printing Summary
Print Server Cfg: Print Server Network Ability Setting
Restore Default: Restore to the Default Value
Upgrade: Firmware Upgrade / Update
DHCP Cfg: DHCP Server Configuration
DHCP Information: DHCP Information
Mail Print Cfg: Email Printing Setting
SMB Cfg: SMB Printing Setting
SNMP Cfg: SNMP Parameter Setting
AppleTalk Cfg: AppleTalk Protocol Setting
The following section will explain in detail each specific
function.
7.2 General - General Information for the
HPS1U
Each time you run the HPS1U’s configuration utility, the
system will initially delay for several seconds because the
utility is using system’s available network protocols to
search for all print servers on the network. Therefore, you
must first select the print server you would like to
configure from the Print Server Name’s field under the
General tag. The system will, at the same time, display
the selected print server’s model number and firmware
version.
You may select any available printer port in the Printer
Port’s field at the bottom of that page, and then press the
“TestPrint” button to test print.
By pressing the “Refresh” button, you may manually
search again for print servers on the network.
7.3 Print Server Status
The Print Server Status page displays the network ability
and status of the HPS3P in detail.
7.4 Printer Status - Attached Printer Status
The Printer Status page displays the printer status for
each port.
7.5 IP Cfg - IP Address Configuration
The IP Cfg page allows you to configure the HPS3P’s IP
address. The print server will obtain its IP address
automatically if you configure the IP address as Auto.
Click the Write button to save the configuration to the
print server and Click the Reset button to reset the print
server and have the changes take effect.
7.6 NW PS Cfg - NetWare Print Server
Configuration
The NW PS Cfg page allows you to set:
The Alias name, a nickname by which the print server can
be called (in addition to the PSxxxxxx name printed on
the label).
The operation mode, which determines how the print
server logs into the network between Bindery mode and
NDS mode.
The primary file server where the NetWare print server
object is located, or the print server’s NDS tree and
context.
The remote printer, which determines if the print server
works in remote printer mode.
The polling interval, which determines how often the
print server checks the print queues.
The Write button: save the configuration to the print
server.
The Reset button: reset the print server to let the changes
take effect.
7.7 NW RP Cfg - NetWare Remote Printer
Configuration
Only some print server models provide Remote Printer
function. The NW RP Cfg page allows you to set:
The Print Server, which will be serviced by the print
server configured as a remote printer.
The Printer Number, which is assigned in PCONSOLE.
The remote printer, which determines if the print server
works at remote printer mode.
The Write button: save the configuration to the print
server.
The Reset button: reset the print server to let the changes
take effect.
