Configuring Remote Printers Running in RP Mode

13
At the workstation or remote server that this printer is attached to, run
NPRINTER and select the SAP name specified in Step 10.
Workstation users can now select the printer and print to it.
These instructions are for configuring a printer attached directly to the
network and running in RP mode, unless that printer is an HP printer.
If you are using a direct-connect printer configured for Queue-Server mode,
we recommend that you reconfigure that printer to RP mode and then
configure it as a NDPS printer using RP. This allows you to gain the
management benefits of NDPS while eliminating a Queue object from your
system.
