You may use Print Screen on any port (any available printer) by

click the right mouse button, click on Select Default , and click on
Phaser 600.) This is a simple way to be sure that all printers are set
up correctly.
NetWare is a shell program running above DOS. Generally, in a Novell network,
a file server, which looks and acts much like a PC computer, maintains queues
for the print files created and sent for printing from other workstations on the
network. The printer, in turn, finds all file servers with Phaser 600 queues and
extracts its print files from them. You must determine if a computer can
communicate a print file to the file server.
Generally, as outlined in the Chapter 2 topic, "Configuring a Novell NetWare
server for the printer" on page 2-53, the file server and printer are configured
during the printer installation using software such as Advanced Configuration
Tool (ACT) or pconsole . The file server is given a name and configured with
queues for the printer.
