Setting up Novell NetWare 3.x Printing
This chapter explains how you can set up your D-Link print server
so that clients of your Novell NetWare 3.x server can print to
attached printers. This chapter also applies if any workstations on
your network are using a Novell NetWare 4.x server in bindery
emulation mode. For information on setting up your print server
for use with NetWare 4.x servers in NDS (NetWare Directory
Services) mode, see the next chapter, Setting up Novell NetWare
4.x Printing on page 40.
Introduction to Novell NetWare Printing
On Novell NetWare networks, when a workstation user wants to
print a document, the workstation network software sends a file
containing commands for the printer to the NetWare file server,
which places it in a print queue.
Some software may be written to send print jobs directly to
NetWare print queues; Windows 3.1 using the NetWare network
driver is an example of this type of software. Software written to
print to a local printer can print over the network if the printer port
has been captured, using the
CAPTURE
command or a similar
method.
