The NW Setup is a setup tool for using a SHARP printer with a
network card installed in a Novell NetWare environment. Registration
of printers to a NetWare server and parameter settings for a network
card can be performed by using a procedure with wizards.
For using the NW Setup, a Novell Client supplied by Novell must
have been installed. Also before starting the NW Setup, you must log
in the NetWare server with the 'Administrator' privileges.
