[comp.sys.novell] Do you know of new Novell printer drivers for Mac VAP's 2.0?

seiffert@bronze.ucs.indiana.edu (04/09/91)

We are trying to move to Apple printer drivers 6.1. These are the new
true-type printer drivers for the Mac. The nice thing is that they are
System 7.0 compatible. Therefore we won't have printer wars after everybody
is at least to 6.1. 

However, we have discovered that everyone must print twice when printing to
Attila from the Novell queue. I would surmise that the novell printer
drivers are resetting the printer on the first print job and actually
printing the document the second time. This affects the Macs using printer
drivers 6.1 as well. The next time a Mac user prints after the Novell queue
has printed, the mac user must reinitialize the printer yet again. 

We are printing to a LaserWriter IINTX. Our server is a Memorex-Telex
7065-20 (386) running Netware 2.15 rev C with Mac VAP's 2.0.

The printer wars continue...


Thanks in advance for any suggestions and/or solutions.
