INTRODUCING THE NETWORK SERVICES

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCING THE NETWORK SERVICES

2 GETTING STARTED WITH NETWORK SERVICES

1.1 Introducing the Network Services

The Network Services software allows users to control printers and multi-functional devices on a network from their personal computers.

Printers and multi-functional devices are referred as device in this guide.

The Network Services software facilitates the efficiency of work under an office environment, where multiple users share printers and facsimiles. With this product, users can look up the status of remote printers and facsimiles on their personal computer and monitor their print jobs without leaving a desk. The Network Services software consists of multiple applications for general users and system administrators.

The Network Services software supports Microsoft Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT 4.0, and Windows 2000 environments along with Novell NetWare and TCP/IP environments.


CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCING THE NETWORK SERVICES1.2 Features Overview

The Network Services software increases the efficiency of your work in a network environment with the following features:

Sets up network servers and devices so that users can use devices on a network from their personal computers.

Enables users to share the link between the port/queue information and devices.

Enables users to find a device appropriate for their print/fax jobs. Enables users to monitor the status of devices and their print/fax jobs on their

personal computers.

SETTING UP NETWORK SERVERS AND DEVICESAn administrator needs to set up network servers and devices to enable users to send print and fax jobs to devices, which are physically connected to a network, from users personal computers.

The Device Admin Wizard of the Network Services software allows an administrator to set up both network servers and devices from a personal computer.

DEVICE ADMIN WIZARDThe Device Admin Wizard is an application mainly for administrators. It allows an administrator to install devices physically connected to a network and modify connectivity settings in NetWare and TCP/IP environments. The wizard guides an

1.2 Features Overview

administrator through setting up devices.You can use the wizard as follows:

For the TCP/IP environment:

You can set up an IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address for a device.

You can set up various features including the LPD port, transports, print mode, job spool using a device properties dialog box.

For the NetWare environment (PServer only): You can create a printer object and a port/queue object in the NetWare server,

modify them, and assign a port/queue to the created printer object. In NDS connection, you can specify the print mode, device name, tree, and

context to the device.In Bindery connection, you can specify the print mode, device name, file server name to the device.

MONITORING THE STATUS OF DEVICES AND JOBSThe Conductor (Toolbar) allows users to monitor the status of devices and print/fax jobs on a network from their personal computers. Users can find printers with few waiting jobs on a network and check whether their jobs were completed without leaving their desks.

Device

Users PC

Network Server



CONDUCTOR (TOOLBAR)The Conductor (Toolbar) allows users to monitor jobs on a network from their personal computers. Use the Conductor to:

monitor the status of print and fax jobs in network servers and devices from users personal computers.

manage jobs (send, hold, release, and delete). monitor the status of all jobs that you sent to devices in one dialog box. monitor the status of devices, paper tray status, error history, and job history. view or modify the connectivity settings of the device and memory information.

SEARCHING DEVICES APPROPRIATE FOR JOBSThe Find Printer Utility is a network searching tool for users. It allows users to search the network for devices that have specific features or capabilities. Instead of manually checking for devices, users can search for, locate, and print to the desired device without leaving their personal computers. For example, users can list printers with A4 size paper and functions of 2 Sided Printing and Stapling on a network.

1.2 Features Overview

FIND PRINTER UTILITYThe Find Printer Utility allows users to search a network for a device with the desired features and find the location and configuration of the found device without leaving a desk.

Use the Find Printer Utility to:

search devices by specifying the following conditions: printer name, printer model, location, paper size, system services (print/fax/scanning), output options (2 sided printing, stapling, resolution)

monitor the status of devices, paper tray status, error history, and job history (same as the Conductor).

view or modify the connectivity settings of the device and memory information (same as the Conductor).

SHARING DEVICE INFORMATION FOR MONITORING DEVICESTo monitor devices on users personal computers, the port/queue information and the devices should be linked. In some network environments, the Network Services cannot automatically make a link between port/queue information and a device. In that case, the Device Discovery Wizard of the Network Services helps administrators and users to make a link.

DEVICE DISCOVERY WIZARDThe Device Discovery Wizard is an application that helps administrators and users to make a link between port/queue information and a device searched on the network.

The management of device informationWhen a link between port/queue information and a device is not placed in the registry, administrators need to create the device discovery file (the extension is .mts) specified for the Network Services using the Device Discovery Wizard. Before monitoring devices, users need to import the device information in the file to the registry of their personal computers by a double-clicking the file.

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCING THE NETWORK SERVICES1.4 Using the Network Services

This guide explains the overall process from the installation of devices on a network using the Network Services to the setup procedures for users to monitor the devices.

See Help for the information of the Network Services operation after building the Network Services environment.

Building the Network Services environmentThe following is the overview of steps to build the Network Services environment.

1. First, administrators set up devices and network servers by using the Device Admin Wizard and the Device Discovery Wizard.

2. Then, users set up their personal computers for monitoring the devices using the Find Printer Utility and the Conductor.

Before proceeding setup proceduresDifferent network environments require different setup procedures and applications when building the Network Services environment. Find your network environment from 13 cases with alphabetical names in the table shown on the next page. This guide explains procedures depending on a network environment.

Environment cases are determined by the combination of the following conditions.

Network servers (NetWare, Windows NT Server, Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2000 Advanced Server, or none)

Mode of devices to install (PServer or RPrinter) for NetWare Connection type (NDS or Bindery) for NetWare Operating system (OS) of users personal computers (Windows 95, Windows 98,

Windows 2000 Professional, or Windows NT Workstation)Some environment cases require a certain operating system of an administrators personal computer.
