NetWare Print Service Settings
In order to print using a NetWare network, it is necessary to enter print service settings including
print server and queue settings.
IMPORTANT
• The following procedures illustrate a sample NetWare setup procedure. Depending on your environment,
the actual setup procedure may differ.
Types of Print Service
Before entering print service settings, refer to the following descriptions to determine the type of
print service you are using.
Novell Directory Service (NDS) and Bindery Mode
NetWare 3.2 uses a network database called Bindery, and NetWare 4.1 or later and NetWare 5 use
the Novell Directory Service (NDS). The machine network supports both NDS and Bindery mode.
Determine the appropriate mode according to the network environment you are using. (If you are
using NetWare 3.2, only the Bindery mode is available.)
Queue Server Mode and Remote Printer Mode
The machine supports printers in either of two operation modes, the queue server mode or remote
printer mode.
Queue Server Mode
When the machine is used in the queue server mode, all printer server functions are provided
by the machine itself, and no other print server hardware or software is required. In NDS queue
server mode (NDS PServer), the NDS print server is used for printing. In Bindery queue server
mode (Bindery PServer), the Bindery mode print server is used. In queue server mode, a sepa-
rate NetWare user operating licence is required for each machine.
Remote Printer Mode
When the machine is used in the remote printer mode, it is controlled by the NetWare print
server. Therefore, the machine uses a print server in addition to the network. The machine
prints using the NDS print server in NDS remote printer mode (NPrinter), and the Bindery print
server in Bindery remote printer mode (RPrinter).
IMPORTANT
• Normally with NetWare 4.1 or later, the NDS printer service should be used, and with NetWare 3.2, the
Bindery print service should be used. This manual describes procedures for these two combinations only.
• With NetWare 5, the NDPS can be used. When using the NDPS, the gateway should be the Novell printer
gateway provided with NetWare. This manual does not describe NDPS settings. Refer to the NetWare
manual.
