Working with Print Job Configurations
Print job configurations are groups of print job options that simplify the use
of CAPTURE and NPRINT. You can use PRINTCON to create or modify
print job configurations and to specify a default print job configuration for
users who use CAPTURE, NPRINT, NETUSER, or PCONSOLE to send
print jobs to a network printer or print queue.
Location of Print Job Configuration Databases
In the NetWare Services, the database is an attribute of a container object or
User object. Configurations can be modified through the “Print Job
Configurations” option of PRINTCON or the “Print Job Configurations”
dialog for the container object in NetWare Administrator.
In NetWare Services bindery mode, the public database is
SYS:PUBLIC\PRINTJOB. DAT.
The private database is SYS:MAIL\<usernumber>\PRINTJOB.DAT
