Novell Host Configuration (10/100Base-T)
In NDS, a printer object can only be attached to one print server
object at a given time, because Novell uses the printer object to
represent a physical printer. A physical printer can only be attached
to one parallel or serial port at a time. Thus, if you assign a printer
object to another print server object, the new print server object will
take it from the old one (this also happens with non-NIC print server
objects).
To properly process print jobs sent to the NIC, the printer object
created in Novell must refer to the destination on this server and not
to the actual physical printer. On the NIC, print jobs must pass
through an extra layer (a "destination") before being sent on to the
printer.
If you are using multiple print servers, you will have to either
rename all your destinations to ensure that no printer object names
conflict or keep all the printer objects for one print server in a
different context than those for the other print server.
