NetWare Services uses a print queue and print server to allow workstations
to print to a printer. The print server takes print jobs from the print queue and
sends them to the printer.

Process
A systematic sequence of operations that transforms raw data into useful
information. Each time a program is run on HP-UX, it runs as a process and
is assigned a process ID. Because HP-UX is a multitasking system, more
than one process can run at the same time. Some processes run in the
background without the user being aware of them.
NetWare Services has three main processes or daemons
• NetWare Protocol Stack daemon (NSPD)
• NetWare daemon
• NetWare Engines
