TDS/TCS is the Oc TDSx00/TCS400 Controller PS is the Print Server workstation (as defined by the customer) WS is any Client workstation P2P means Peer to Peer connection C/S means Client/Server connection
Peer-to-Peer configuration
In this Configuration, the Client WorkStation is directly connected to the controller. The main advantage of the Peer to Peer is in the throughput: only one data transfer from the Client workstation to the controller. The main drawback is the lack of centralized resource administration and setup: each Client workstation has to be setup individually. Also the maximum number of simultaneous connection is limited to 10. SMB (NetBeui) and TCP/IP Protocols allow this type of configuration.
10
Client/Server configuration
In this Configuration, the printing resources administration are centralized and controlled by a System Administrator. The Client workstation is no more directly connected to the controller, but to a Print Server workstation.
The main advantages are the central administration of the printing resources, the number of simultaneous connection and the possibility of application and driver updates. The main drawback is in the network traffic: printing data are sent twice on the LAN. The IPX/SPX Protocol can only work with this configuration. The SMB (NetBeui) and TCP/IP Protocols also allow this type of configuration.

PSERVER Setup
Queue Based Printing
A Print Server running on the TDSx00/TCS400 controller connects to a Novell Server. A client sends jobs to a queue on the Novell Server. The Oc TDSx00/TCS400 controller Print Server which regularly requests jobs to the Novell Server (polling mode) retrieves those jobs and prints them.
Configuration
You need to configure not only the Client Workstation and the Oc TDSx00/TCS400 but also the Novell Server in order to establish the connection between the Oc Print Server (on Oc TDSx00/TCS400 printer controller) and the Novell server.
Note: The Peer-to-Peer connection does not exist on IPX/SPX protocol. w Set up the environment 1 Setup the Oc TDSx00/TCS400 Controller, and DO NOT reboot it. 2 Setup the end user environment (Novell Server). 3 Reboot the Oc TDSx00/TCS400 Controller. 4 Check Oc TDSx00/TCS400 Print Server status on Novell Server. 5 Setup the client workstation (driver installation). 6 Print a test page to check the setup is correct. Note: These steps are described in the following sections.

If the Print Server is not present in Netware 5 Console connection status, reboot the Oce TDSx00/TCS400 If the Print Server is present in Netware 5 Console connection status, but the status is AUTHENTICATED: Delete the Print Server connection on Novell Server, then Reboot the Oce TDSx00/TCS400
Printing occurs after a while Normally, the controller polls for job every XX
seconds, XX is set in Oce TDSx00/TCS400 controller (Settings Editor) and the default value is 30 seconds, so printing may occur by default 30 seconds after having submitted the job.

Print Server Name problem It is not recommended to mix lower case and upper case characters when naming Print server, printer Queue and Printer. More generally, check you follow standard object naming conventions:
s
...Not all print server names will be valid... Service Advertising Protocol (SAP) names. For example, SAP names may not exceed 47 characters, they cannot contain spaces, and they must be in all-caps. In addition, many double-byte characters used on certain code pages are not valid SAP characters.
Novell Capture not persistent with port LPTX: When using Novell capture to
redirect LPTX: port to Novell Queue, after rebooting Windows, the capture is not active again albeit the check box Check to always capture this port when you start Windows has been checked. In this case, rather put a capture command line in the Novell login scripts (ask your Novell Administrator for that purpose).
My job name is LPT3 in Oce TDSx00/TCS400 Queue Manager Cause is that the driver port is LPT3, and LPT3 has been redirected to Novell Queue (capture). To avoid this problem, you have to avoid the capture, see the other alternatives for installing a driver in the relevant section. I cannot see PSERVER on Novell server Monitor connection section Check you
have not exceeded the maximum number of authorized licenses (Use NLS for that purpose: ask your Novell Administrator)
NDS CONTEXT name problem? On Oce TDSx00/TCS400 controller settings (Novell section), you can either use the typeful or typeless convention when entering the NDS context name:

Controller Setup
In NDPS environment, the Novell Server sends jobs to the TDSx00/TCS400 controller by means of the LPR protocol, so this protocol must be enabled on Controller.
w Enable the LPR protocol. Note: You MUST be logged as a System Administrator . 1 Switch the Oc Setting Editor in SA Mode (seeSwitch the Oc Setting Editor
6 Click Apply. 7 Reboot the controller (seeReboot the controller on page 272).
90
FIrst, you have to check whether the NDPS component is installed on the Novell Server; otherwise, install it (refer to Your Novell Netware installation manual).
Create a NDPS Manager
The NDPS Manager is used to create and manage server-based Printer Agents (similar to the way PSERVER is used on servers to manage printing resources in legacy printing). You must create an NDPS Manager on each server you will be controlling NDPS printers from.
Note: You MUST be logged in as Novell System Administrator on any Windows

Attention: To autoload the NDPS Manager when you restart the Novell
server, add the following line to your server s autoexec.ncf file (otherwise, the NDPS manager will not be loaded after rebooting the Novell Server): load ndpsm NDPS Manager name and context For instance, in this example, the following line must be added: load ndpsm .OceNDPS_Manager.NDPS_PRINTERS.SNSESC

NDPS printers must be represented by a logical entity known as a Printer Agent. No Printer Agent can represent more than one printer, and no printer can be represented by more than one Printer Agent. The Printer Agent lies at the heart of NDPS, combining the functions previously performed by a printer, print queue, print server, and spooler into one intelligent and simplified entity.

The Broker provides three network support services not previously available in NetWare:

Service Registry Service (SRS), Event Notification Service (ENS), Resource Management Service (RMS): RMS is the one we use below.
The RMS service allows resources (printer drivers, ) to be installed in a central location and then downloaded to clients, printers, or any other entity on the network that needs that resource. When NDPS is first installed in an NDS tree, a Broker object is created automatically in the container where the Server object resides. A broker should then exist and run on your Novell Server. If not, refer to Create a NDPS broker object on page 101.

Printing in NDPS is very slow with Novell gateway LPR printing
There is a known problem on Novell lpr client slow rate (~25 KB/s). Ref. Novell 10057434: Printing to LPR-based printer using Novell Printer Gateway in LPR mode results in slow delivery of print data and slow print job processing times. Download the Novell patch: NDPS-Post SP2/SP6 NDPS updates (Last modified: 17OCT2001). It contains (between other) fix for lpr client.

115
These updates are intended for any one of the following platforms: s NetWare 5.1 with Support Pack 2 applied running NDPS 2.1.3. s NetWare 5.0 with Support Pack 6 applied running NDPS 2.0.6.
NDPS broker setup: add resource problem: the browse button does not work
This problem was noticed on Windows 2000 Operating system when browsing while adding a resource.
Note: This problem may also occur on other Operating System.
To solve this problem, you need to launch nwadmn32.exe with the following option (require command line): Z:\ win32\nwadmn32.exe /DisableTLSMGR
You cannot see the NDPS printer while browsing with Network Neighborhood
s
This is a known issue for Win NT4/Win2000/Win XP platforms while it works for Windows 9X platform, and this has an impact when trying to create a Printer A workaround consists to create a Queue Object on Novell server and link it to a NDPS printer so that Win NT4/Win2000/Win XP can browse Queue objects. You can then create a printer on Queue Object destination, but this method works fine on pure IP network while checksum errors may occur whenever IPX and IP protocols are mixed. This is the reason why this method is not described in this manual.
There is a NDPS package for Netware 4 which is obsolete so not advised. Recommendation is to upgrade to Netware 5.X in order to use NDPS.

Appendix A
265
General
This Appendix is aimed at system administrators and describes how to configure your Oc TDSx00/TCS400 system in order to easily integrate it in the Customer s network environment. The Oc TDSx00/TCS400 system can be configured locally or remotely:
s
If you configure it locally, nothing needs to be installed since the controller applications (Setting Editor, System Control Panel, ) are directly accessible on the controller monitor. If you configure your Oc TDSx00/TCS400 system remotely, you need to install the remote applications called Remote Logic on a client workstation.
Attention: For the Oc TDS400 system without the Scan to File option or
the TCS400 standard configuration, you cannot configure your Oc system locally. You need to use the remote logic applications. To install Remote Logic on your client workstation and to connect it to the Oc TDS400/TCS400 system, please refer to the corresponding chapter in the Oc TDS400/TCS400 User Manual. Once Remote Logic is installed on your workstation and connected to your Oc TDS400/TCS400 system, you are ready to configure your system. Configuration of your system depends on the network environment. Please refer to the corresponding chapters in this connectivity manual.
