You can use the following procedure to manually install the IPX Peer-

Once the redirector is installed, each printer on the network that sup-
ports this Peer-to-Peer capability will appear as a Port under Printer. To
use the Peer-to-Peer connection, create a logical printer using the driver
installation program according to the instructions for your printer. Set
up the printer as a LOCAL printer.

• If a NIC is being moved from a site that had active Novell to a site that

does not, the unit should be reset to the factory default to clear the
frame type and network number information.
