SUMMARY

If you experience printing problems when you use Novell NetWare version 2.12 with Microsoft Windows version 3.00, you may need to replace the CAPTURE.EXE file. The CAPTURE.EXE file shipped with the MS-DOS Windows SHELL Kit version 3.01 or later should be replaced with the CAPTURE.EXE shipped with Novell NetWare version 2.12.
