SUMMARY
If a logical printer is removed under the Printers folder (Print Manager in
Windows NT 3.51) that has also been assigned as a print server to a
NetwareCompatiblePServer port under File and Print services for NetWare
(FPNW), Print Servers in Server Manager for Domains, registry entries
pointing to the print server will remain after the printer has been deleted
in the Printers folder (or Print Manager).
MORE INFORMATION
Logical printers are defined in the registry under the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\FPNW\Bindery\Type03
Print servers are defined in the registry under the following key:
