NetWare Print Service Settings

To print using a NetWare network, you need to specify print service settings
including print server and queue settings. You can use any of the software below to
specify the print service settings from your computer.
•
NWADMIN or PCONSOLE (Novell software provided with NetWare)
IMPORTANT
•
To specify the print service settings from NWADMIN, the computer must have Novell
Client (NetWare Client by Novell) installed.
•
The following procedures describe a sample NetWare setup. Depending on your
environment, the actual setup procedure may differ.

Types of Print Service

Before specifying print service settings, refer to the following descriptions to
determine the type of print service you are using.
NOTE
•
Normally with NetWare 4.x or later, it is recommended that you use NDS print service.
With NetWare 3.2, it is recommended that you use Bindery print service. This manual
describes procedures for these two combinations only.
•
With NetWare 5.x, you can use NDPS (Novell Distributed Print Services).
This manual does not describe NDPS settings. For NDPS settings, see the NetWare
manual.
I
NDS (Novell Directory Service) and Bindery Mode
The machine network supports both NDS and Bindery mode.
Determine the appropriate mode according to the network environment you are using. (If
you are using NetWare 3.2, only the Bindery mode is available.)
I
Queue Server Mode and Remote Printer Mode
The machine supports both queue server mode and remote printer mode.
•
Queue Server Mode
When the machine is used in the queue server mode, all print server functions are
provided by the machine itself; no other print server hardware or software is required. In
NDS queue server mode (NDS PServer), the NDS print server is used for printing. In
Bindery queue server mode (Bindery PServer), the Bindery print server is used for
printing. In queue server mode, a separate NetWare user operating licence is required for
each machine.
