of the
PSERVER.NLM called
pserver1
and sending jobs to the NIC
destination
d1prn

:
store rprinter add pserver1 0 d1prn
NOTE: If it is an NDS pserver, enter only the PSERVER name and
not the context (e.g.,
sales_ps
).
5. Physically repower the printer to make the new settings take
effect.
Wait two minutes and then check your PSERVER to see if the
appropriate printer is being serviced. The printer should display a
message such as Waiting for job. At this point, the NIC knows to
receive any jobs this PSERVER.NLM has to send to it through the
defined printer.
NDPS Configuration (Netware 4.11 And Above)
Overview
In 1998, Novell released a new printing system designed to make
network administration of printers easier and more fully functional.
This system is called Novell Distributed Print Services (NDPS), and
can be used with Novell Netware 4.11 and above along with the
supporting software on clients. This section gives high-level
instructions to install and use NDPS with the printer. These
instructions assume that you understand NDPS architecture well
enough to be able to use these instructions along with Novell's
instructions to install NIC into NDPS. See Novell’s documentation
to understand terms not defined here.
