Most queue-based printing in NetWare networks is currently realized through
one of the following configurations:
QServer-mode
printer
Queue
Print Server
When migrating to NDPS from any of these configurations, you should first
consider the protocols, connection methods used, and potential need to
configure the printer in determining which gateway to use. If a third-party
gateway is used, the resulting configuration would look as follows:
RP-mode
printer
