Queue server mode
When using queue server mode, all print server functions are supported, so there is no need for other
print server software or hardware. In NDS queue server mode (NDS PServer), the NDS print server is
used for printing. In bindery queue server mode (Bindery PServer), the bindery print server is used for
printing. Note that if you use queue server mode, a NetWare user license is required for each network
interface.

Remote printer mode
In remote printer mode, the printer is controlled by the NetWare print server. Thus, a NetWare print server
is required. In NDS remote printer mode (NPrinter), the NDS print server is used for printing, and in bind-
ery remote printer mode (RPrinter), the bindery print server is used for printing.
