NetWare print services has a dialog for each of the three
types of printing objects: Print Queue, Printer, and Print Server.
You access printing objects using the same method used for
other objects in the browser.
If you specify changes in several pages and decide you do
not want to keep some of the changes, remember the following:
You must manually delete unwanted information from the fields.
If you choose "Cancel," you can
choose whether you want to save changes. If you choose not to save
changes, you'll lose the changes you want to keep in the
other pages.

|
 | WARNING! Because the pages are all part of one dialog, do
not choose "OK" or "Cancel"
until you are finished with all pages and are ready to close the
object dialog. |

|
Like other NetWare Directory Services leaf objects, you can
move, delete, or rename printing objects.
You cannot copy NetWare Directory Services objects, but you
can create aliases to reference objects in other contexts. See "Creating
Leaf Objects" in Chapter 1 of Supervising the
Network or "Alias Object" in Concepts.
Moving Printing Objects |
|
To move an object, select the object in the browser and choose
"Move" from the "Object" menu,
or hold down <Ctrl> while dragging a leaf object and dropping
it onto another container.
When an object is moved, the name is changed to reflect the
new context.
Moving an object is like changing part of the object's
complete name or like changing its context.
When you move an object, all references and assignments to
the object are automatically changed as well.
Viewing the Assignments
for Printing Objects |
|
The "Assignments" pages for the Print Queue,
Printer, and Print Server object dialogs show the current assignments
for those printing objects. Use the following steps to view printing
assignments.
Procedure
Select the printing object you want to view in the browser.
The dialog for that object appears.
Select the "Assignments" page,
as shown in the following figure.
Renaming Printing Objects |
|
When
you
rename
an
object, all references and assignments to the object are automatically
changed as well.
To use rename, select an object in the browser and choose
"Rename" from the "Object" menu.
If you select the option to "save the old name,"
it is stored as a value in the "Other Names" property.
Deleting
Printing Objects |
|
When
you
delete an object, all references and assignments to the object are
automatically deleted as well. Delete cannot be undone.
To use delete, select an object in the browser and choose
"Delete" from the "Object" menu.
