NOVELL NETWARE PRINTING 6 - 2 Creating a NDPS Printer Using NWADMIN for NetWare5 With NetWare 5, Novell has released a new preferred printing system called Novell Distributed Print Services (NDPS). Before the print server can be configured, NDPS must be installed on the NetWare 5 server and an NDPS Manager configured on the server. For further information regarding NDPS printers and printing, see the Other Sources of Information section at the end of this chapter. NDPS Manager This creates a NDPS manager that interacts with services running at the server and manages an unlimited number of printer agents. You have to create an NDPS manager within an NDS tree before creating server-based printer agents. If the NDPS manager controls a printer attached directly to the server, you must load the manager on the server that the printer is attached to. 1 In NetWare administrator, navigate to the area you want the NDPS manager to reside. Select Object | Create | NDPS Manager and click OK. 2 Enter an NDPS manager name. 3 Browse to a server (which has NDPS installed but no NDPS manager installed) where you want to install the NDPS manager and then to the volume you want the NDPS manager database assigned to. Click create. 6 - 3 NOVELL NETWARE PRINTING NDPS Broker When NDPS is installed, an NDPS broker is loaded onto the network. One of the Broker services Resource Management Service allows Printer Drivers to be installed onto the server for use with Printer Agents.

Then power the print server/printer off and then on again, to retry the download. [. . . ]
