NDPS

   Also found in: Acronyms 0.01 sec.
NDPS
(Novell Distributed Print Services) A printing protocol co-developed by Novell, Xerox and HP that provided print services on NetWare file servers. It first shipped as an option for NetWare 4 in 1997. NDPS supported bi-directional capability with sophisticated features such as e-mailing the toner supplier before the toner ran out. The successor to Novell's Queue Management Services (QMS) printing protocol (see QMS), NDPS relied on NetWare's bindery or NDS directories to identify printer resources.

Based on SNMP and ISO 10175 open standards, NDPS ran as an NLM on a NetWare server, and the client ran under Windows. It supported QMS and LPR/LPD plus third-party gateways to other printers. Starting with NetWare 5, NDPS added JetDirect and Xerox protocols. See NLM.

If you have four or five servers in the cluster at any given point, you could have a users volume, you could have an Apps volume, you could have a mail volume, you could have an NDPS Print volume.
HP said it would be using the standardized protocol within future JetDirect and Web JetAdmin products but would also be working with Novell Inc's NDPS distributed print services, and with Sun Microsystems Inc on Jini.
Using the NDPS in conjunction with Sun's Netra servers and ATCA blades incorporating the UltraSPARC T1 processor with CoolThreads[TM] technology, network equipment providers can rapidly develop advanced, high-performance data plane applications.
