TITLE LAN CONNECTION FOR PRINTERS IN NOVELL NETWARE ENVIRONMENT
ABSTRACT The IBM LAN Connection for Printers and Plotters provides a
direct connection of parallel and EIA-232-C serial printers and
plotters to local area networks (LANs). These new models support
Novell (1) NetWare (1) networks. The IBM LAN Connection for Printers
and Plotters consists of a network printer adapter unit that attaches
to a LAN and a software utility that resides on the LAN print server.
The adapter unit has both a serial and a parallel port that can be
used simultaneously to support two printers or a printer and a
plotter.
The software utility takes the print data normally sent to the
print server's parallel ports and redirects it to either the parallel
or serial port of the adapter. The appropriate printer attached to
the adapter receives the data and prints it just as if the printer
were attached to the server's printer port.
The IBM LAN Connection for Printers and Plotters software
utility supports remote printing in PSERVER or RPRINTER mode with
Novell NetWare 2.2 or 3.11 connected to either a Token-Ring (IEEE
802.5) or an Ethernet (IEEE 802.3 or Ethernet II) LAN.
The IBM LAN Connection for Printers and Plotters operates
without noticeable degradation of printing performance and supports
the following data streams: IBM Personal Printer Data Stream (PPDS),
Hewlett-Packard Printer Control Language (HP PCL), IBM/HP Graphics
Library (GL), and Adobe PostScript (2). A user-friendly interface
allows the user to easily configure and maintain one or more adapters
on the network.

DESCRIPTION
SYSTEMS MANAGEMENT
The network utility provides systems management for supported
printers and plotters connected to the IBM LAN Connection for
Printers and Plotters remote from the associated LAN print server.
USER PRODUCTIVITY
The IBM LAN Connection for Printers and Plotters allows printers and
plotters to have location freedom. Printers and plotters are not
required to be directly attached to the network printer server, but
can be located anywhere in the network. Improved print-job
throughput may be realized because of faster communications between
the print server and printer.
BUSINESS SOLUTION
Customers can add printers and plotters to their existing Novell
NetWare LAN Servers or networks.
INVESTMENT PROTECTION
With the IBM LAN Connection for Printers and Plotters supporting
Novell NetWare 2.2 and 3.11, with Token-Ring (IEEE 802.5) and
Ethernet (IEEE 802.3 or Ethernet II) protocols, customers can now
attach printers and plotters to their current networks.
GROWTH ENABLEMENT
The IBM LAN Connection for Printers and Plotters provides a constant
and stable base so that as the business grows, printers can be
connected via multiple external network adapter units at the location
that is best suited to the users' needs.
PRODUCT POSITIONING
The IBM LAN Connection for Printers and Plotters (Models 011, 012,
and 013) offers a direct LAN connection printing solution for Novell
NetWare. It is designed for customers with direct attach printing
requirements for Token-Ring (IEEE 802.5) or Ethernet (IEEE 802.3 or
Ethernet II) connection. The new models (011, 012, and 013) teamed
with the previously announced models (001, 002, and 003) provide
printer LAN connection for the most popular network systems: IBM OS/2
(R) LAN Server, Novell NetWare, IBM OS/2, AIX (R), and Microsoft (3)
LAN Manager.
