Novell NetWare
A NetWare file server provides print spooling for clients so that
they can print over a network. The file server holds print jobs until
it is contacted by a print server on the network which in turn
sends the job to the appropriate printer. NetWare print servers
are typically special-purpose networking hardware such as the
Kodak Professional 10/100 network interface card (NIC).
NOTE: It is assumed that network administrators are familiar with
setting up Novell NetWare systems and print queues using
appropriate utilities such as PConsole and NWAdmin.
This chapter provides details on selecting and configuring the
printer/NIC to service Novell queues.

you have completed the following steps:

queues and services.

Operator’s Guide which is included on the CD for instructions
on setting up your printer.
•

network. Refer to “Installing the Hardware” for instructions on
installing and verifying the NIC and the network connection.

Windows 3.11 on PCs that will be sending jobs to the
printer.This software is included on the CD that came with the
