5.1System Architecture

We implemented NetWare printer sharing functionality into the print server itself, thus allowing one or more printers attached by a print server to be connected to the network. We have developed the print server to support NetWare print server.

Embedded print server, which emulates the “queue management functionality” of NetWare print server, PSERVER program running on the NetWare server. A user first prints a job at a workstation, the job is routed to a NetWare server, the NetWare server stores the job in a print queue and then the print server gets the print job from the queue to printers.
