- Hello,
-
- I am having problems printing to an HP DeskWriter on a Novell 3.11 network
- running NW4Mac 3.011. Here is the set up:
-
- NetWare 3.11
- NW4Mac 3.011
- load afp
- load atps
- atpsfix1
- atpsfix2
-
- in my atps.cfg file:
-
- -p DeskWriter -o "NUNS DeskWriter" -t DeskWriter -z "Acns Staffnet"
-
- Physically,
-
- Ethernet network;
- DeskWriter is connected via phonenet to a Dayna EtherPrint Plus
- which is connected to the rest of the network via thinnet;
- I have also a LaserWriter connected the same way.
-
- This is what happens:
-
- If I print directly to either the DeskWriter or the LaserWriter from my mac
- it prints without a problem.
-
- If I print to the LaserWriter through the NetWare print queue there is no
- problem.
-
- If I print an ascii file from a PC through the NetWare queue to the
- DeskWriter, it also prints without a problem.
-
- If I print to the DeskWriter from a macintosh through the Netware print
- queue ATPS says "Begin job ####" and stops. My macintosh is from that
- point on hung and must be rebooted; it does not come back even after
- waiting overnight.
-
- I am without a clue. Does anyone have any suggestions?
-
- Thanks in advance,
- Peter...
