Page 110 highlights

Installation and Reference for the Model PS104/PS105/PS110/PS113 Print Server 3. Select the print server. 4. Select Change Configuration. 5. Select NetWare Configuration. 6. Verify that the Operation Mode field shows RP for RPRINTER mode. 7. Enter the correct NetWare print server names in each one of the Novell PSERVER fields. 8. Return to the Select Configuration Item window. 9. Select Execute Change. Your print server is now configured in NetWare RPRINTER mode and ready to service multiple NetWare print servers. Using Logical Ports Logical ports can be used to create a "virtual" printer. For example, to create a landscape printer, you could define a logical printer as: • Pre-string-printer control codes to switch the printer to landscape mode • Post-string-printer control codes to reset the printer, restoring the default settings Another example of the use of logical printers is to print UNIX-format text files properly, by converting UNIX-style LF (Line Feeds) to DOS-style LF/CR (Line Feed, Carriage Return) pairs. Each Model PS104 and Model PS105 Print Server has one parallel port and supports three logical printers. Each Model PS110 and PS113 Print Server, with two and three parallel ports respectively, supports eight logical printers. Configuring Logical Printers on the Print Server To define pre-string, post-string, and the physical output port of a logical printer: 1. Execute the PSCONFIG program. 2. Select the Model PS104/PS105/PS110/PS113 print server, and then select Change Configuration. 5-22 Novell NetWare Printing
