Hello Alan,
 AF> RPRINTER is not supported in Win95. The suggestion in the early days
 AF> was to use Microsoft's File and Print Services to print, meaning you'd
 AF> have Novell's client for working with the server, and Microsoft's
 AF> client for peer-to-peer communication to handle printing.
This is how we have it set up now.  It doesn't appear to be 100%, but
that could be the way that we set it up.
 AF> With the release of Client32, you now have the ability to use
 AF> NPRINTER, and you can configure NPRINTER to look at NetWare 3.12 print
 AF> queues as well as NetWare 4.x print queues. When installing NPRINTER,
 AF> configure it to support bindery services.
I asked our company admin. about this, but he didn't want to go to the
client32.  The only reason that he gave was that he didn't want to add
another variable.  Is client32 difficult to install/manage?
 AF> I think you can get a copy of NPRINTER and Client32 from the Novell
 AF> web site.
I'll check it out.
Thanks, Brian
... I love standards, there are so many of them!
