>>Novell, unlike Windows, does not provide printer identity or a set of drivers through the print server; it's the responsibility of the user to select and provide the drivers, since the Novell print queue does not even pass through a PnP identification of the target printer. Install the printer on an NT or Win2K server (or even a Win9x box with the service File and Printer Services for Microsoft Networks installed) and it will work just fine.

You can, but you must have the printer driver installed before accessing it, and you ought to NET USE rather than CAPTURE the printer.
