about configuring and using the Ethernet Card.
Avoiding Reboot with Print Server Status/Control
How can I avoid having to reset my Ethernet Card print server after
each configuration change? It’s disrupting users’ print jobs.
If rebooting the Ethernet Card after configuration changes is
inconvenient, you can use PCONSOLE’s Print Server
Status/Control to create temporary configurations. Then use
PCONSOLE’s Print Server Configuration to enter the same
changes into the file server’s permanent database. Since the
temporary changes go into effect immediately, you can use
your new configuration without rebooting the Ethernet Card.
When the Ethernet Card is rebooted, the temporary changes are
erased, and the permanent changes go into effect.
I’m trying to use PCONSOLE’s Print Server Status/control, but I can’t
edit any settings. What’s wrong?
Unless you are a print server operator, Print Server Status/Control
is read-only
To assign print server operator status, log in with supervisor
privilege. Enter PCONSOLE, select “Print Server Information,”
and select the print server name. Then select Print Server
Operators. Press INSERT, and add your login name to the list of
print server operators.
