2 When an end-user attempts to add an NDPS printer, the client
queries the NDPS brokers (B) to identify all available NDPS printers.
3 The NDPS broker (B) responds with a list of NDPS printer agents (P).
The user selects a printer agent and the TOSHIBA NDPS gateway
downloads the appropriate driver to the user's desktop.
4 When the client workstation is ready to print, it sends the print job to
the printer agent (P), which is a virtual printer image created in the
NDPS network.
5 The NDPS manager (M) then passes the print jobs to the TOSHIBA
NDPS gateway.
6 The TOSHIBA NDPS gateway issues the printing commands to the
printer.
Installing the TOSHIBA NDPS Gateway
Considerations and Limitations
The TOSHIBA NDPS gateway can be installed in servers running
NetWare 4.12, 4.2, 5.1 SP7, NetWare 6.0 SP5+, or 6.5 SP2+. A self-
extracting, executable file contains both the TOSHIBA NDPS gateway
and a NetWare admin snap-in component that are necessary to
support NDPS printing through the controller.
The NDPS manager can drive several gateways simultaneously. The
TOSHIBA NDPS gateway does not interfere with other manufacturer's
gateways.
The TOSHIBA NDPS gateway supports multiple printers; one printer
can also be split between several gateways to balance the work load.
Both NDPS and non-NDPS users can share the same printer.
The TOSHIBA NDPS gateway supports network configurations that
are based on both a server and the Windows operating system.

You add it manually to the NDPS manager (M), which resides on
the same NetWare file server as the TOSHIBA NDPS gateway.
