System Architecture  
We implement NetWare printer sharing functionality into  
the print server itself, thus allowing one or more printers  
attached by a print server to be connected to the network.  
We have developed the print server to support NetWare  
print server.  
Embedded print server, which emulates the “queue  
management functionality” of NetWare print server,  
PSERVER program running on the NetWare server. A user  
first prints a job at a workstation, the job is routed to a  
NetWare server, the NetWare server stores the job in a  
print queue and then the print server gets the print job  
from the queue to printers.

advantages of embedding the NetWare network printing  
functionality in the print server include:  
1. Installation is easier and quicker.  
2. Network management is easier.  
3. Printing performance is enhanced.  
4. Relieve NetWare file server’s burden.  
5. Relieve the need of a workstation running the remote  
printer utility.  
6. Improve productivity by locating the printer near the  
workgroup.  
7. Each print server should log into a NetWare server  
before servicing the print jobs. Each print server will  
occupy a user account with which it can log into the  
NetWare server.

6. UNIX System Network  
6.1  
Introduction  
The print server is available for TCP/IP printing by Unix  
LPD (Line Printer Daemon) protocol. The LPD protocol  
originated with Unix release is based on the BSD version  
of Unix and supported under most versions of Unix.  
This chapter explains how to configure the print server for  
TCP/IP operation, and how to modify configuration files on  
your Unix system to allow printing to the print server. The  
configuration examples in this manual follow the syntax  
for BSD based Unix systems. Please refer to the related  
system documentation for the correct syntax of your  
systems.  
To configure the print server for LPD printing, perform the  
procedures below:  
1. Enable Print Server’s TCP/IP Support.  
2. Set up Print Server’s IP address.  
3. Verify Print Server’s IP Address.  
4. Configure remote LPD printing on the host.  
5. Print a test page.  
In the next sections, we will describe these five  
procedures step by step.  
52  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
6.2  
Enable Print Server’s TCP/IP Support  
The default configuration of the print server is with TCP/IP  
support enabled. Anyway, you can configure the print  
server to enable TCP/IP support using the configuration  
program.  
6.3  
Setup Print Server’s IP Address  
The print server must have a unique IP address in order to  
be recognized by the network.  
You can set up the IP address on the various Unix  
systems using any one of the following methods:  
1. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)  
2. BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol)  
The print server will use the last three methods to obtain  
its IP address automatically if its IP address is configured  
as Auto (0.0.0.0).  
6.3.1  
DHCP  
There are many Unix systems that support DHCP protocol,  
and the procedures to configure the DHCP server  
database are different. This manual does not describe the  
DHCP server configuration on the Unix systems. It is  
highly recommended that the DHCP server should be  
located on the same network as the print server.  
53  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
6.3.2  
BOOTP  
If you have the BOOTP daemon, bootpd, running on your  
UNIX system that is accessible by the print server, you  
can use the BOOTP protocol to set up the IP address of  
the print server. We recommend that the BOOTP server  
should be located on the same subnet as the print server.  
If you use Network Information Services (NIS) in your  
system, you may need to rebuild the NIS map with the  
BOOTP services before doing the following BOOTP  
configuration. To rebuild the NIS map, please refer to your  
system documentation.  
To configure the IP address data for the BOOTP server,  
you will need to log in the host of BOOTP server as the  
superuser (root). Perform the following steps to add  
address entries,  
1. Optionally, assign a name corresponding to the print  
server’s IP address. You can add this address to the  
/etc/hosts file, by adding a line such as:  
203.66.191.12  
pserver  
2. Add an entry to the host’s /etc/bootptab file, similar to  
the following:  
hostname:\  
:ht=1:\  
:ha=print_server_ethernet_address:\  
:ip=print_server_ip_address:  
54  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Lines should be indented with tabs.  
Where hostname is the device name of a print server, the  
ht=1 tag specifies the hardware type is Ethernet, the ha=  
tag specifies the Ethernet address of a print server, which  
is the Node ID located on the print server. The ha tag  
must be preceded by the ht tag. The ip= tag should  
correspond to the IP address you want to assign to the  
print server.  
For example, a print server with the following  
configuration:  
Node ID: 0000B4010101 (this implies Ethernet  
address is 0000B4010101),  
IP address: 203.66.191.12  
The entry for this print server in the /etc/bootptab file  
should be:  
PS010101:\  
:ht=1:\  
:ha=0000B4010101:\  
:ip=203.66.191.12:  
55

6.4  
Verify Print Server’s IP Address  
To verify that your print server is responding to the newly  
assigned IP address using a PING command:  
ping ip-address  
6.5  
Configure Remote LPD Printing on the  
Host  
The procedure you use to configure your Unix host(s) to  
allow printing to your network remote print server varies  
between different varieties of Unix. The procedure below  
can be used for Unix variants that are related to BSD Unix,  
such as SunOS or Linux. For other versions of Unix,  
consult your system documentation, keeping in mind that:  
1. The print server should be treated as a BSD networked  
print server host.  
2. The host name should be the name (or IP address)  
that you have assigned to the print server.  
3. The printer name (or queue name) on the remote host  
should be lpt1, lpt2 or lpt3, the name of the printer  
port on the print server.  
You will need to perform the tasks below, logged in as the  
superuser (root). To configure your Unix host for printing,  
56  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
1. Optionally, assign a name corresponding to the print  
server’s IP address. You can add this address to the  
/etc/hosts file, by adding a line such as:  
203.66.191.186  
pserver  
2. Create a spool directory for the printer in the same  
directory where spool directories are normally kept on  
the machine, such as /var/spool or /var/spool/lpd:  
mkdir /var/spool/lpd/pserverd  
chown daemon /var/spool/lpd/pserverd  
chgrp daemon /var/spool/lpd/pserverd  
chmod 775 /var/spool/lpd/pserverd  
3. Add an entry to the host’s /etc/printcap file, similar to  
the following:  
printer-name:\  
:lp=:\  
:rm=203.66.191.186:\  
:rp=lpt1:\  
:lf=/var/spool/lpd/pserverd.log:\  
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/pserverd:\  
:mx#0:  
57  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Lines should be indented with tabs. More than one printer  
name can be used, with variants separated by vertical  
bars (name1|name2).  
The rm= entry should correspond to the IP address you  
have assigned to the print server. You can also use a host  
name if you have assigned one in the /etc/hosts file.  
The sd= entry should correspond to the spool directory  
you created in the previous step.  
The rp= entry should correspond to the port name of the  
remote printer. The values should be one of lpt1, lpt2 or  
lpt3 depends on the printer port.  
The print server should now be available for printing from  
your Unix host.

WEP Security Mode:  
79  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
You can select “64 bit” or “128 bit” length and  
“Hexadecimal” or “ASCII” format for the encryption key.  
Longer key length can provide stronger security but worth  
communication performance.  
Enter four key values by following the rules below and  
select one key as the default key.  
PassPhrase – A passphrase simplifies the WEP encryption process  
by automatically generating the WEP encryption keys for the print  
server. This setting is only valid when the security mode is in  
“WEP(HEX)”.  
Key 1 to Key 4 – If the key length is 64-bit, enter 10-digit Hex values  
or 5-digit ASCII values as the encryption keys. For example:  
“0123456aef“ or “Guest“.  
If the key length is 128-bit, enter 26-digit Hex values or 13-digit ASCII  
values as the encryption keys. For example:  
“01234567890123456789abcdef“ or “administrator“.

WPA-shared key or WPA-None Security Mode:  
“WPA-shared key” (for an infrastructure network) or  
“WPA-None” (enables WPA security for your ad hoc  
network) requires users to set the advanced encryption  
methods, i.e. TKIP and enter a set of shared key.  
81

TKIP – TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) changes the temporal  
key every 10,000 packets. This insures much greater security than  
the standard WEP security.  
Shared Key – Enter 8 to 63 digits of ASCII format to be the key for  
the authentication within the network.  
When you finish configuring the wireless security, click  
“Next” to go to next step.

10. LPR Printing

users to connect to printers via TCP/IP for printing sharing.  
The computer with Windows 98SE/Me/NT/2000/XP/2003,  
Windows Vista and MAC OS 10.x Operating Systems can
