A print server is a software program that monitors and manages printers and print queues. PSERVER is the native NetWare® print server that takes jobs from a NetWare print queue and directs them (via NPRINTER) to the assigned printer. In NetWare 6 software, PSERVER is available only as a NetWare Loadable ModuleTM (NLMTM) program that can be loaded on a NetWare server.
NOTE: Multiple PSERVER modules cannot run concurrently on the same NetWare server.
Print server functions can be managed through the NetWare Administrator utility or at the server console.
HINT: This utility is for use with Novell® legacy, queue-based print services. iPrint and Novell Distributed Print ServicesTM (NDPS®) are the default and preferred print system in NetWare 6. Queue-based printing is fully supported in NetWare 6, which allows your users to continue printing as they always have until you complete the transition to NDPS.
For a discussion of NDPS support for legacy printing, see Supporting Queue-Based Client Workstations. For information on migrating to iPrint and NDPS, see Planning the Migration to Novell Distributed Print Services.
