CAUTION If you are using direct-mode printing over IPX/SPX on a Microsoft network, do not disable IPX/SPX.

For a Novell NetWare network:

The embedded Web server may be used to select Queue Server Mode parameters in a Novell Directory Services (NDS) environment.

You cannot create the NDS print server, printer, and queue objects using the embedded Web server. To create these objects, use other available tools or utilities.

messages, use the value “0”.
