PURE NETWORKING 10/100 MINI PRINT SERVERS USERS' MANUAL
The print server has built-in NetWare printer sharing. This allows one or more
printers attached by a print server to be connected to the network. The print server
supports both NetWare and the print server.
The embedded print server, which emulates the NetWare print server's queue
management functionality, is a PSERVER program running on the NetWare server.
A user prints a job at a workstation, the job is routed to a NetWare server, the
NetWare server stores the job in a print queue, then the print server gets the print
job from the queue to printers. See Figure 6-1.

Compared with NetWare printing, the advantages of embedding the NetWare
network printing in the print server include:
• Installation is easier and quicker.
• Network management is easier.
• Printing performance is enhanced.
• Relieves the NetWare file server's burden.
