If it does not, and only works with netware print queues, you will have
to set up mars-nwe (netware emulator) on the Linux box and have it
act as the print server and spool the files to the network ipx
printer.

I'm trying to set up an old, cheap printer server that I have.
It is called ZOT 525 and it's a small box with a Centrontics port on
one side and 10Mb ethernet on the other (and 9V power).
I can connect it to my 10/100 hub, run ethereal and see that it
sends out some IPX "rubbish" that ethereal claims to be malformed
packages.
The box has a sticker label where it says that the Node ID is
004001404391. In ethereal I see 00:40:01:40:43:91 in the packets,
using IEEE 802.3. It is broadcasting (I assume) to ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff.
Now, I don't know much about IPX, but I have tried to configure my
Linux laptop to use IPX without much success.
The "nprint" utility can be used to connect to a Novell print server,
but it wants a server name, a user name, a password and a printer
queue... I doubt that my little box is this complex.
Note that I don't have any Novell servers, only this box using IPX.
One W2K Pro is set up to use IPX on its interface, my laptop
running SuSE Linux 8.0 and there is the printer server.
How do I go about connecting to this print server?
How should I configure my Linux machine to work with it?
There is some info about it here:
http://www.hardwarezone.com/reviews/others/zot525/zot525.htm
http://www.01tech.com/r525.htm
It was made by "Zero One Technology":

They say that it supports:
Fully supports Novell's Netware 3.x, 4.x and 5.x
Supports Netware "Print Server" mode
Supports multiple Netware print queues
Automatic frame types detection function
Automatically reattaches to Netware file server after the network
recovery.
Complies with ANSI/IEEE 802.3 Ethernet standard
