Summary: Can we use DTR protocol?

We are about to install a small LAN in our Computer Center. We will be
using Novell Advanced Netware 286 (v. 2.0a) installed on an IBM AT file
server. We would like to attach a spooled printer to one of the server's
serial ports. The installation process allows us to specify whether the
printer will use the XON/XOFF protocol. My question is this: if we say NO
to XON/XOFF would the spooled printer driver adhere to DTR protocol instead?

BTW - where might be the best newsgroup and or mailing list to discuss Novell's
Netware?

If possible would you please send replies by mail. Our news feed seems to
be quite intermittent these days.

Many thanks.
