• replaces the need for a dedicated Novell PSERVER
• provides faster throughput than using the printer server as an RPRINTER
operating through a Novell PSERVER

• supports encrypted or unencrypted passwords
Using the Emulex printer server as a Novell Remote Printer (RPRINTER):
• requires a Novell PSERVER module somewhere on the network
• provides slower throughput than using the printer server as a PSERVER
• occupies one user slot
• uses the PSERVER module to handle passwords
