33-3 Overview of IPX printing to the Fiery SI • Each NetWare file server routes jobs to a single connection on the Fiery SI (Direct, Print Queue, or Hold Queue.) Therefore, if you want to send jobs over IPX to more than one Fiery SI connection, you have to configure an additional file server. • All NetWare file servers must communicate with the Fiery SI using the same Ethernet frame type. You can set the frame type the Fiery SI supports in Network Setup/Ethernet Setup/IPX (Novell) Setup. • Windows 95 and Windows 3.1 workstations can use IPX/SPX protocols for communicating with the Fiery SI directly to run the Fiery SI utilities. The Ethernet frame type for this communication must match the frame type you selected on the Fiery SI. The Windows workstations must have the utility software, the IPX/SPX-compatible Protocol, and appropriate configuration files (NET_WIPX.DLL and NET_WSCK.INI) loaded. Overview of IPX printing to the Fiery SI NetWare file servers support the creation of print queues, storage areas for print jobs. When a client on a remote computer elects 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. When the Fiery SI is configured to connect to a NetWare server, the Fiery SI polls the NetWare server for jobs in any of its queues. If it finds any, they are transferred over the network to a connection (Direct, Print queue, or Hold queue) on the Fiery SI. The connection used is the one that was previously published in the Control Panel Printer Setup for that printer and NetWare file server (see page 2-23). While the 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.
