NDPS

   Also found in: Acronyms 0.09 sec.

(Novell Distributed Print Services) A full-featured printing protocol co-developed by Novell, Xerox and HP that provides print services on NetWare file servers. NDPS supports bi-directional capability with sophisticated features, enabling for example, a low-toner situation to e-mail the toner supplier before the toner runs out. NDPS relies on NetWare's bindery or NDS directories to identify printer resources on the network. It is the successor to Novell's Queue Management Services (QMS) printing protocol (see QMS).

Based on the SNMP and ISO 10175 open standards, NDPS runs as an NLM on a NetWare server, and the client part runs under Windows. It supports QMS and LPR/LPD plus a third-party "gateway" to interface with other printing protocols. Starting with NetWare 5, JetDirect and Xerox protocols are included in NDPS. NDPS first shipped as an option for NetWare 4 in late 1997.
