Creating A Ndps Printer Using Nwadmin For Netware5; Ndps Manager - Brother HL-1870n Network User's Manual

Creating a NDPS Printer Using
NWADMIN for NetWare5
With NetWare 5, Novell has released a new preferred printing system called
Novell Distributed Print Services (NDPS). Before the print server can be
configured, NDPS must be installed on the NetWare 5 server and an NDPS
Manager configured on the server.
For further information regarding NDPS printers and printing please refer to the
"Other Sources of Information" section at the end of this chapter.

NDPS Manager

This creates a NDPS manager that interacts with services running at the server
and manages an unlimited number of printer agents.
You have to create an NDPS manager within an NDS tree before creating server-
based printer agents. If the NDPS manager controls a printer attached directly to
the server, you must load the manager on the server that the printer is attached to.
1. In NetWare administrator, navigate to the area you want the NDPS
manager to reside. Select Object | Create | NDPS Manager and click OK.
2. Enter an NDPS manager name
3. Browse to a server (which has NDPS installed but no NDPS manager
installed) where you want to install the NDPS manager and then to the
volume you want the NDPS manager database assigned to. Click create.
