Considerations
Novell NetWare RPrinter mode requires one of the following:
PSERVER.VAP for Version 2.x NetWare file servers
PSERVER.NLM for NetWare file servers
PSERVER.EXE for a stand-alone PC-based print server.
Note
After configuring the XNIC RPrinter mode, and if your printer
has more than 25 file servers, it is recommended that you
configure the XNIC with the PServer name that will remotely
attach to the XNIC.
Refer to 6. Setting the Remote PServer Name for
RPrinter/NPrinter (Recommended for Large Networks)
(page 3-47).
