Configuration Options

The following list describes the configuration options available in Novell® Distributed Print ServicesTM (NDPSTM).


General Properties


Job Hold Properties


Event Notification Properties

By specifying event notification for a printer configuration, you allow job owners to receive notification of printer or job events that occur during the processing and printing of a job. Notification configured in this way is sent by pop-up message box only.

Print job notification allows you to designate the event types for which notification messages should be generated (warnings, errors, or reports). For more information, see Optimizing Event Notification.

NOTE:  In NetWare Administrator, administrators can use the Access Control feature to configure event notification for interested parties, that is, non-job-owners you wish to be notified of specific events. See Configuring Interested-Party Notification for more information. At the workstation, individual users can use the Novell Printer Manager to configure event notification pertaining to their own jobs only. See Configuring Job-Owner Notification for more information.
