Q.
I would like to completely remove IPX from my local segment, but I can't because many of my printers require IPX to service NetWare queues. Do you have any suggestions?
A.
If your printer supports LPR-LPD printing, use the LPR_GWY.NLM that is included with NetWare/IP 2.2. This NLM works in conjunction with PSERVER.NLM to pull print jobs from a NetWare print queue for printing on a LPD (line printer daemon) device, such as a printer. To configure LPR_GWY printing for a printer with the NWADMIN utility, select "Unix or TCP/IP" as the printer type, and enter the DNS name of the IP printer.
