Using Novell Net Ware

The Ethernet Card can function as a print server or remote

printer running under Novell NetWare. It also has an Auto

Print Server/Remote Printer mode that allows it to switch

modes depending on network conditions. The following

sections describe how to configure the interface card to operate

in each of these modes.

Ethernet Card Configuration Software

The Ethernet Card comes with EPSON Net! for NetWare,

EPSON’s proprietary network printer management utility

program. You must configure the card using EPSON Net!. The

disk provided with the card includes a Windows-based

version and a DOS version of this easy-to-use, menu-driven

program.

Use the appropriate version to set up your card as a print

server or a remote printer. You can use EPSON Net! to add or

delete queues, change port configurations, rename the print

server, configure the interface to service queues on other file

servers, and other tasks.

Before setting up

First decide whether you want to use the interface card as a

dedicated print server or remote printer, or in Auto Print

Server/Remote Printer mode.

Install the Ethernet Card and connect it to the network

following the instructions in Chapter 1. The card must be

connected to the network and the host printer must be

turned on before setting up.
