Configuring the Printer Driver Destination
This topic describes how to specify the printer driver destination if the printer's IP address is changed, or if you will use the
printer over a network connection instead of via USB connection. The procedure described below is the configuration based on the LPR or Raw protocol using the standard TCP/IP port in
Windows (  Standard TCP/IP Port  ).
Important•If you will use the printer in a TCP/IP network, make sure the printer's IP address is configured correctly.

Follow these steps to specify the frame type by using imagePROGRAF Device Setup Utility or the printer Control Panel.
Note• You can specify the frame type by using RemoteUI if the printer's IP address is configured.Important•Before specifying the frame type, make sure the printer is on and connected to the network.
• For  instructions  on  installing  imagePROGRAF  Device  Setup  Utility,  see  "Installing  imagePROGRAF  De-
vice Setup Utility ."

Specifying NetWare Print Services
Before printing in a NetWare network, you must configure print services such as print servers, print queues, and so on. You can configure the print service settings from a computer using any of the following Novell software provided with NetWare.
•NWADMIN
• PCONSOLE
Important•If you use NWADMIN to configure the print service settings, Novell Client (the Novell NetWare client soft-
ware) must be installed as the client software application.
• NetWare networking is unsupported in Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7.
This topic gives instructions for configuring NetWare print services. The order of this procedure may vary depending on the
environment.
Choosing the type of print services
Before completing print service settings, choose the type of print service. Refer to the following descriptions as needed.
Note• In NetWare 5.1 or 6.0, NDPS may also be used as the print service. If you use NDPS, use the Novell printer
gateway included with NetWare. For details on configuring NDPS, refer to the NetWare documentation.
• NDS (Novell Directory Service) and bindery
NDS and bindery are both supported. Use the mode that is compatible with your network environment.
• Queue server mode and remote printer mode
Queue server mode and remote printer mode are both supported.
•Queue server mode
When using queue server mode, all print server functions are supported, so there is no need for other print server
software  or  hardware.  In  NDS  queue  server  mode  (NDS  PServer),  the  NDS  print  server  is  used  for  printing.  In
bindery  queue  server  mode  (Bindery  PServer),  the  bindery  print  server  is  used  for  printing.  Note  that  if  you  usequeue server mode, a NetWare user license is required for each network interface.
• Remote printer mode
In remote printer mode, the printer is controlled by the NetWare print server. Thus, a NetWare print server is re- quired.  In  NDS  remote  printer  mode  (NPrinter),  the  NDS  print  server  is  used  for  printing,  and  in  bindery  remote
printer mode (RPrinter), the bindery print server is used for printing.
Using NWADMIN or PCONSOLE to set up the print server
Use NWADMIN to set up the print server if NDS queue server mode or remote printer mode is used.
1. Log into NetWare as Administrator or with equivalent rights, and then start NWADMIN.

Enter key.
Note• This procedure is not required when using queue server mode.
Use PCONSOLE to set up the print server if bindery queue server mode or remote printer mode is used.
