Using Bindery Reference Queues
While we strongly urge you to upgrade all of your printers to NDPS as soon
as possible, you might still want to provide your users with access to queue-
based printing resources for a variety of reasons. While connecting to queue-
based printers can be accomplished directly when you configure a Printer
Agent, you might need to create one or more bindery reference queues to
provide access to the following:
Printers controlled by a NetWare 3 file server
Printers controlled by a NetWare 4 or NetWare 5 server in a different tree
A bindery reference queue serves as a pointer to a real NetWare queue. After
you have created a bindery reference queue, you can then configure a Printer
Agent to send jobs to that queue just as you would if the queue actually resided
on another server in the same tree. The following discussion explains how to
accomplish this procedure using NetWare Administrator.
If a bindery reference queue already exists, you can use it with NDPS with no
modification. A new reference Queue object does not need to be created in
eDirectory.
Prerequisites
The print queue you want to reference must already exist on the server
you want to point to
A bindery object of the same name as the one you are using must exist on
that server and must have rights to the print queue you are referencing
Procedure
The following procedure lets you reference a bindery queue and make it
available to NDPS printers.
1 In NetWare Administrator, select the container where you want the
reference queue to reside.
2 From the Object menu, click Create > Print Queue.
