LaserWriters: Use Bindery Emulation Under Netware 4.x

We have an Apple LaserWriter 16/600 PS on our Ethernet network and I want to set it up to print under Novell NetWare 4.1. I've set up the printer using the included Windows utilities as a NetWare PSERVER. The instructions in the included manual explain using the NetWare utility PCONSOLE to make the printer available under NetWare.

The manual tells me to change PCONSOLE to bindery emulation, but I would like to set it up as an NDS object. Do I have to configure the printer in bindery emulation mode?
According to Novell, setup requires switching to bindery mode in PCONSOLE. Here's some information from Novell's Network Support Encyclopedia about this:

"Network-direct print devices and their installation programs are designed to look in the NetWare 3.1x bindery for network printing information. In order for these devices to work on your NetWare 4 network, you should use the bindery emulation mode when installing them."

For additional information, please contact Novell, Inc. The Tech Info Library article titled "Locating Vendor Information" can help you search for a particular vendor's address and phone number.
