GL-1020 Administrator’s Guide 139
4 When the client workstation is ready to print, it sends the
print job to the Printer Agent, which is a virtual printer image
created in the NDPS network.
5 The NDPS Manager then passes the print jobs to the
TOSHIBA NDPS Gateway.
6 The TOSHIBA NDPS Gateway issues the printing
commands to the printer.
Installing the TOSHIBA NDPS Gateway
Considerations and Limitations
n The TOSHIBA NDPS Gateway can be installed in servers
running NetWare 5.x with service pack 3A (3.0.1) or higher
or NetWare 6.x. A self-extracting executable file contains
both the TOSHIBA NDPS Gateway and a NetWare Admin
Snap-in component that are necessary to support NDPS
printing on the GL-1020.
n The NDPS Manager can drive several Gateways
simultaneously. The TOSHIBA NDPS Gateway does not
interfere with other manufacturer’s Gateways.
n The TOSHIBA NDPS Gateway supports multiple printers;
one printer can also be split between several Gateways to
balance the work load.
n Both NDPS and non-NDPS users can share the same printer.
n The TOSHIBA NDPS Gateway supports network
configurations that are based on both a server and the
Windows
®
operating system.
Prerequisites
Install NDPS in the NetWare servers. NDPS comes with NetWare
5, but it is not installed automatically. The NDPS install program
extends the NDS schema for three NDS objects:
n NDPS Manager
n NDPS Broker
n NDPS Printer Agent
To load the TOSHIBA NDPS gateway on NW4, besides loading
CLIBAUX.NLM, you need to have the Novell new localization
conversion tables installed in SYS:\SYSTEM. You can find these
files from latest Support pack 8a for NetWare 4.11 or 4.2. After
