FarPRINT Literature
LPD/LPR NLM for the Netware Server

FarPRINT completes Netware-to-UNIX integration
FarPRINT takes the lead in a new generation of high 
performance LPD/LPR-based NLM print utilities for Netware 
servers.

FarPRINT allows direct cross-mapping of UNIX and Netware print 
queues.  FarPRINT enriches any UNIX/Netware installation, 
providing immediate, high speed, reliable, bi-directional 
server-to-server printing.

What FarPRINT can do for you 
FarPRINT employs the industry standard LPD/LPR protocol to 
transfer print jobs to and from remote UNIX hosts and Netware 
Servers.  Using LPD/LPR protocol makes FarPRINT inherently 
compatible with the vast majority of UNIX and other systems 
that implement LPD services.

With FarPRINT you no longer need to use an intermediate PC when 
printing from Novell to UNIX or UNIX to Novell.  
Server-to-server print queue mapping enhances both end user 
usability and overall reliability when printing from one 
environment to another.

The need for server-to-server printing has been either 
overlooked or poorly implemented on most sites.  Why 
reconfigure print queues just because you are adding a UNIX 
system?  FarPRINT transparently moves UNIX print Jobs to 
Netware queues (or visa-versa).

FarPRINT provides high flexibility without sacrificing 
performance.  For UNIX-to-Netware printing (LPD), FarPRINT can 
be configured for up to 48 UNIX queues to be mapped to Netware 
queues.  For Netware-to-UNIX (LPR) printing, FarPRINT allows up 
to 48 Netware queues to be mapped to UNIX printers.

WHY USE FARPRINT
FarPRINT seamlessly bridges the gap in Netware-to-UNIX 
printing.  FarPRINT allows UNIX to take advantage of the 
installed Netware printer infrastructure (if you are adding a 
UNIX system to a Novell site).  Or, FarPRINT allows Netware to 
take advantage of existing UNIX printers (if you are adding 
Netware to a UNIX site) - all completely transparent to the end 
user.

Because FarPRINT directly cross-maps up to 48 Novell and UNIX 
print queues, users can print from either environment as they 
always have - but now print jobs will be moved transparently 
to/from the Netware or UNIX spooler to the other environment. 

FARPRINT IS FAST - PRINTING IS IMMEDIATE
Because FarPRINT is a complete implementation of TCP/IP's 
LPD/LPR, it is both efficient and extremely fast.

No more waiting for other print utilities to spool and poll.  
FarPRINT receives and/or  sends print jobs immediately. 
FARPRINT IS AN INDUSTRY STANDARD Based on the industry standard 
LPD/LPR, FarPRINT  keeps you within the standard TCP/IP suite 
of protocols.  No matter what kind of UNIX system you have or 
plan to purchase in the future, you can be confident that 
FarPRINT will work for you.

Additionally, because FarPRINT is based on the  industry 
standard LPD/LPR, there is no need to install any support files 
on UNIX and modification of the UNIX system's printer interface 
is unnecessary.  Starting your UNIX system's built-in LPD/LPR 
services is the only UNIX setup required.

FARPRINT IS SIMPLE TO USE AND ADMINISTER
FarPRINT's familiar NLM interface makes administering both 
local and remote printers easy and straightforward.  Any 
Netware administrator will feel right at home with FarPRINT's 
Syscon inspired interface. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS Netware Server 
requirements:  Novell Netware 3.11 (or greater).  FarPRINT 
takes less than 300K of disk space on the Netware Server.

UNIX requirements:  Any UNIX that supports LPD/LPR protocol.
