Windows NT 4.0 Workstations and Servers
10-4 Part No. 1H9613 June 1997
When a printer is shared on a server, do not select other
Windows systems that will use the queue. Drivers should be
installed locally on all systems serviced by a server. You may
encounter problems when trying to download copies of a driver
from the server to a workstation.
Indirect Printing (Printing through a Server)
From the workstation, browse the network and select a pertinent
server and queue.
Even though a workstation may be configured to print directly to a
printer using TCP/IP or AppleTalk, we recommend that
workstations print indirectly by selecting a TCP/IP server queue
for optimal resource utilization.
NT Server Queues
On NT servers, you may encounter corruption of data when
printing files over 5 Mbytes. Color bands appear across the
printed image. This condition can be corrected by setting up
server properties to accept the entire print job before passing the
file on to the printer. “Start Printing After Last Page Spooled” must
be selected.
