RPRINTER/NPRINTER Setup

(Netware 3.x and Netware 4.x)

This procedure associates an existing PSERVER with a remote PrintNet acting as a RPRINTER/NPRINTER in a NetWare 3.x or Netware 4.x environment. It is the PSERVER’s responsibility to get jobs from the queue and to pass them off to the PrintNet acting as the remote printer. Unlike a PSERVER setup, the PrintNet does not deal directly with the queues.

NOTE: As a RPRINTER/NPRINTER, the print server does not use a login ID. A non-PrintNet print server such as PSERVER.NLM or PSERVER.EXE must be running for RPRINTER to operate. Also, if the PrintNet loses a connection to a PSERVER, it will automatically reconnect when that server becomes available again.

The following steps assume that you have created a PSERVER object in either Netware 3.x or Netware 4.x and have assigned printers and queues to it. If you have not already done this, do it now. The setup is similar to creating a PSERVER setup for the PrintNet, except that there are no restrictions about which names may be used for the print server and printer objects.

NOTE: Write down the printer number(s) assigned to the printer(s) you are going to be using for this setup. You will need them in a later step.

HTML Method

1.Load a PSERVER on your Netware 3.x or Netware 4.x file server (i.e., issue a load pserver pservername command on the file server).

NOTE: If it is an NDS PSERVER on a Netware 4.x file server, you must specify the PSERVER name and context for pservername. For example:

load pserver .sales_ps.sales.microplex
