Managing the print service

Adding, copying, or modifying a remote NetWare printer

Add Printer->Add NetWare Printer
Modify Printer->Properties

 To:      Select:

You can set (or change) these parameters:

Name
The name you want to call the remote printer on your local system. You cannot change the name of an existing printer.

The SCOadmin Printer Setup Manager does not permit printer names to contain the ``_'' character. To add a printer whose name includes a ``_'', add it from the command-line. Once the printer name is created, the Printer Setup Manager will be able to manage it.

Make/Model
The printer model that matches your printer, or a model with which it is compatible.

NetWare Server
The name of the host that controls the remote printer. Click on Select to choose from a list.

NetWare Print Queue
The name of the printer on the remote system.
