3 Setting Up a New NDPS Printing
System
Creating a new Novell
®
Distributed Print Services
TM
(NDPS
®
) system will
not automatically disable your current printing setup. Users can continue to
print just as they always have until you decide to replace old printing setup
with NDPS. You can do this gradually or all at once.
Before setting up your new NDPS printing system, we recommend that you
read Chapter 2, “Planning the Migration to Novell Distributed Print Services,”
on page 35.
This chapter discusses the following:
“Creating NDPS Brokers” on page 61
“Creating NDPS Manager” on page 61
“Creating NDPS Printers” on page 62
“Setting Up NDPS Printers to Service Legacy Queues” on page 65
“Configuring Queue-Based Printers” on page 65
“Printing from Macintosh Workstations” on page 68
“Setting Up LPR Clients on UNIX” on page 69
“Preparing Client Workstations to Use NDPS” on page 69
For information on setting up printing in other situations, see Appendix A,
“Configuring Remote Printers,” on page 137.
