3-3 DocuColor on an IPX network
Overview of IPX printing to the DocuColor
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.
The queues on the NetWare server must be named to match the Direct connection
and the Print queue on the DocuColor. The NetWare queue names should be given an
extension corresponding to the DocuColor queue, as follows:
_print
_direct
NOTE: The extension names must be in all lowercase.
There is no need to rerun Setup when adding or removing a NetWare queue; however
you should reboot the DocuColor after a queue is created or removed.
When the DocuColor is configured to connect to a NetWare server, it polls the
NetWare server for jobs in each of its queues. If jobs are found, they are transferred
over the network to the matching connection: Print to Print, Direct to Direct. While a
job is processed and printed, a record of the job is being created. You can access the Job
Log containing these records at any time.
