5 Printing Through NetWare

IPX/SPX Frame Types

The printer supports the following types of Ethernet interface:

• 10Base-T (Twisted Pair Cable)

• 100Base-TX (Twisted Pair Cable)

The following frame types are supported:

• Ethernet II specification

• IEEE802.3 specification

• IEEE802.3/802.2 specification

• IEEE802.3/802.2/SNAP specification

The printer will send out packets of each frame type on the connected network and activate
automatically to the frame type which responds first.

However, if other protocols are running simultaneously on the same network, use the frame
type that the NetWare server is using.

Note
• Some network components (such as the hub) may not support automatic setup for frame type. If the

data link indicator light of the port which is connected to the printer of the network component does not
light up, match the setting ([IPX/SPX FrameType]) of the printer to the frame type of the file server.

Set Up Procedure

The setting procedure is as follows:

1.

Setting up the printer

Use the printer control panel or OkiWebRemote to set the NetWare port to [Enable]
(default: [Disable]).

Print the [System Settings List] and check the device name and network address that
listed in the Netware.

Refer to
• Setup Guide

2.

Settings for the NetWare Environment

Using PCONSOLE or NetWare Administrator (NWADMIN), create print queue, print
server and printer, and assign the respective objects.

By using OkiWebRemote, transfer the set NetWare environment to the printer.

Important
• When setting up for the PCONSOLE or NWADMIN, use the device name checked in Step 1 for the print

server name. Set Printer Location as Auto Load (Local).

• For information on how to use PCONSOLE or NWADMIN, refer to the manual which comes with

NetWare. NWADMIN can be used on NetWare 5 or later.

Note
• OkiWebRemote allows more detailed settings.
• By using the NetWare Setup Wizard, you can set the printing environments for the NetWare server or

printer. For details about the NetWare Setup Wizard, refer to “8.2 NetWare Setup Wizard” (P. 39).

Setting up the computer

Install the printer driver to the NetWare client computer.
