.SH DESCRIPTION
With \fBnprint\fP, you can print files on print queues of a NetWare file
server.
There are a lot of options, so you should probably wrap some default
configurations into some shell scripts.
\fBnprint\fP looks up the file \fI$HOME/.nwclient\fP to find a file server,
a user name and possibly a password. See nwclient(5) for more information.
Please note that the access permissions of \fB.nwclient\fP MUST be 600, for
security reasons.
.SH OPTIONS

this conversion by \fB-C\fP.
