Double click the appropriate Brother print server. You will be prompted for a password, the default password is access. Now select the NetWare tab. 16. Select Queue Server as the operating mode. The same service assigned by NetWare server name cannot be used for both queue server mode and remote printer mode. If you want to enable queue server capabilities on services other than the default NetWare services, you must define new services that are enabled for NetWare and for the desired port. Refer to the Appendix in this manual for information on how to do this. 17. Enter the NDS tree name (note that a print server can service both NDS and bindery queues). 18. Type in the name of the context where the print server resides. 19. Exit the BRAdmin application making sure that you save the changes that you have made. You are now ready to print.
CHAPTER 6 NOVELL NETWARE PRINTING 6-10 Configuring the Brother Print Server (Remote Server Mode in NDS mode) using Novell NWAdmin and BRAdmin To configure a Brother print server for remote printer mode with NWADMIN (NetWare Administrator utility) and BRAdmin, you will need to perform the following steps: 1. Make sure that the PSERVER NLM (NetWare Loadable Module) is loaded on your file server and that you are logged in as ADMIN in NDS mode on the NetWare 4.1x file server. 2. Start NWADMIN by double clicking on the icon. Select the desired Context that will contain the new printer. 3. Select Object from the menu bar and then Create. When you get the New Object menu, select Printer and then OK. 4. Enter the name of the printer and select Create. 5. Double click on the print server name of your PSERVER NLM.

Note the number of the printer, as you will use this later, then click OK. 7. Select the desired Context that will contain the default print queue, and then click on Object and Create to get New Object menu. 8. Select Print Queue and then OK. Make sure that Directory Service Queue is selected, and then type in a name for the default print queue.
CHAPTER 6 NOVELL NETWARE PRINTING 6-11 9. Click on the button to select the print queue volume. Change the directory context if necessary, then select the desired volume (Objects) and click OK. Click Create to create the print queue. 10. Change context if required and then double click the name of the printer you created previously. 11. Click Assignments and then Add. 12. Change context if necessary and select the print queue you created. Click OK and then OK again, and then exit NWADMIN. 13. Start the appropriate BRAdmin application, and select the correct print server you wish to configure (by default, the node names will begin with BRN_xxxxxx_P1, BRN_xxxxxx or BRO_xxxxxx_P1 if it is a Brother NC- 2000 series print server). You can find the NetWare server name and MAC address by printing out the printer configuration page. Refer to the Quick Setup Guide for information on how to print the configuration page on your print server. 14. Double click the appropriate print server. You will be prompted for a password, the default password is access. 15. Now select the NetWare tab. 16. Select Remote Printer as the Operating Mode, select the name of your PSERVER NLM as the Print Server Name and select the number of the printer from step 6 as the Printer Number. The same service assigned by NetWare print server cannot be used for both queue server mode and remote printer mode. If you want to enable remote printer capabilities on a service other than the default NetWare service, you must define new services that are enabled for NetWare and for the desired port. Refer to Appendix B in this manual for information on how to do this. 17. Click OK. And exit BRAdmin. You must now unload the PSERVER NLM from your NetWare file server console and then reload it in order for the changes to take effect. As an alternative to Brothers BRAdmin application or the Novell NWADMIN application, you can use the standard Novell PCONSOLE utility in conjunction with Brothers BRCONFIG program to set up your print queues. BRCONFIG program will be installed at the same time when you install the BRAdmin and you can find the BRCONFIG in the menu Start/Program/Brother BRAdmin utilities. Otherwise you can find it in the Brother Print Server Configuration Utility diskette. Note that if desired, you may use a WWW browser or TELNET utility - instead of the BRCONFIG utility).
CHAPTER 6 NOVELL NETWARE PRINTING 6-12 Configuring the Brother Print Server (Queue Server Mode in Bindery emulation mode) using PCONSOLE and BRCONFIG 1. Login as Supervisor (NetWare 3.xx) or ADMIN (NetWare 4.1x or later; be sure to specify the /b option for bindery mode). 2. Execute the BRCONFIG from the Windows menu or insert the Print Server Configuration Utility diskette in drive A: and type the following at the DOS prompt: A:BRCONFIG or A:BRCONFIG PrintServerName Where PrintServerName is the NetWare print service name of the Brother print server (the default name is BRN_xxxxxx_P1 or BRO_xxxxxx_P1, where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the Ethernet address (MAC address)). You can find the NetWare print service name and MAC address by printing out the printer configuration page. Refer to the Quick Setup Guide for information on how to print the configuration page on your print server. 3. If you did not specify the print server name in the BRCONFIG command, select the corresponding server name from the list of print servers. 4. When you get the message that the print server is connected, type the default password access in response to the # prompt (the password will not echo), and then press the ENTER key in response to the Enter Username> prompt. 5. When you get the Local> prompt, type: 6. SET NETWARE SERVER servername ENABLED 7. Where servername is the name of the file server on which the print queue will reside. If there is more than one file server that you wish to print from, repeat this command as many times as necessary.
CHAPTER 6 NOVELL NETWARE PRINTING 6-13 8. Type EXIT to exit the BRCONFIG remote console program and save the changes and start the Novell PCONSOLE utility. 9. Select Print Server Information (NetWare 3.xx) or Print Servers (NetWare 4.1x; ignore the warning message) from the Available Options menu. 10. You will be shown a list of current print servers. Press the INSERT key to create a new entry, type in the NetWare print server name (BRN_xxxxxx_P1 or BRO_xxxxxx_P1 by default, where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the Ethernet address) and press ENTER. Return to the main Available Options menu by pressing ESCAPE. 11. Select the Print Queue Information (NetWare 3.xx) or Print Queues (NetWare 4.1x) menu option to see list of configured print queues. 12. Press INSERT to create a new queue on the file server, type the new queue name and press ENTER. The name does not have to be related to the name of the print server resources, but should be short and convenient for users to remember. 13. Make sure that the new queue name is highlighted, and then press ENTER to configure the queue. 14. Select Queue Servers (in NetWare 4.1x, this item is called Print Servers) and press ENTER to specify which network print servers can print jobs from this print queue. The list will be empty, since none have been selected yet if this is a new queue. 15. Press INSERT to get a list of the queue server candidates and select the print server service name from step 11, Press ENTER. 16. Press ESCAPE several times until you return to the Available Options menu. 17. Force the print server to rescan file servers for print jobs. You may either turn the printer off and on again or you may down the print server in PCONSOLE as follows: · In the Available Options menu, highlight Print Server Information, and press ENTER. · Select the print server name (BRN_xxxxxx_P1 or BRO_xxxxxx_P1 if using a NC-2000 series print server) and press ENTER.
