Part No. 6B4389  June 1999

To service NetWare print queues, the NIC operates in the 
following two modes:

In remote printer mode, the user sends the print job to the file 
server which then spools it to a print server and sends it to the 
printer. Remote printer mode does not use a user license on the 
file server. If you have NetWare 4.xx and need to take advantage 
of NetWare Directory Services, you must use remote printer 
mode.

 

In queue server or print server mode, the NIC functions as a 
NetWare print server eliminating the need for a dedicated print 
server. Jobs from the a PC are spooled to the file server which in 
turn spools the job directly to the NIC. Queue server and print 
server mode, however, require a user slot on the file server.

NOTE: We recommend that you use queue server mode if you 

have NetWare2.xx or 3.xx unless you have a limited 
number of available user slots.

To use the NIC on a Novell network, one or more file servers must 
be configured with a print queue that the NIC can service. Users 
send their print requests to the file server’s print queue, and the 
jobs are then spooled to the NIC directly or through an 
intermediate print server in remote printer mode.
