GA-1120 on a NetWare 4.x or 5.x network

Tips for experts—IPX networks

Setting up the GA-1120 is similar to setting up any other PostScript printer on the
network.

The GA-1120 with IPX connections has the following characteristics:

A minimum connection to the GA-1120 consists of a NetWare file server, a NetWare

print server, and a NetWare queue.

Both NetWare 3.x and NetWare 4.x are supported directly. NetWare 4.x is also supported through bindly emulation.

A single directory tree and up to eight bindery servers can be configured
simultaneously.

The GA-1120 looks for print jobs on one NetWare print server per bindery server.

Each print server can store jobs for any print connection on the GA-1120.

Overview of IPX printing to the GA-1120

NetWare file servers support the creation of print queues, which are storage areas for
print jobs. When a client on a remote computer decides to print, the job is directed to
a print queue on the NetWare file server and spooled to the NetWare server disk,
freeing up the client workstation.

You must give the NetWare queue names a specific extension corresponding to the
GA-1120 print connection, as follows:

_print
_hold
_direct

N

OTE

:

These extension names must be in English and in all lowercase letters.
