NetWare NPRINTER Help
NetWare NPRINTER is a graphical program that allows you to route print jobs
through your OS/2 workstation.
Use NPRINTER to connect or disconnect a remote printer on a network.
A remote printer can be connected to any workstation. The workstation must also
be attached to the same LAN or interLAN as the print server servicing the
remote printer.
NetWare NPRINTER for OS/2 runs as an application in a single OS/2 session. It
is not a terminate-and-stay-resident (TSR) program.
NPRINTER does not actually direct print jobs to physical ports on the OS/2
workstation. Instead, it directs jobs to OS/2, which then directs jobs to the
physical port. Therefore, OS/2 printing must be properly set up in order for
NPRINTER to work.
