Print device definitions and printer forms

Importing print device definitions from another NetWare server

If you want to use another NetWare server's print device definition, you must import the definition from that server. First export the print device definition from the original server into a .PDF (Print Definition) file. You can then import the .PDF file to the database on your server. You can copy only one definition at a time.

You must have the Supervisor right (user Admin or equivalent) on both NetWare servers (or the Admin of the other server will need to help you).

``Importing .PDF files from another server'' illustrates the steps in copying a print device definition. This example shows how to copy a typical print device definition from NetWare server MARKETING to NetWare server SALES.

First, export the definition from the PRINTDEF database on MARKETING to the SYS:PUBLIC directory on MARKETING. Then import the definition from the SYS:PUBLIC directory on MARKETING to the PRINTDEF database on SALES.
