 NNETPSPSTA()
 Queries the status of a print server printer
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Syntax

     NNETPSPSTA(<cPServer>,<nPrinter>,[<cServer>|<nConId>])
        --> nStatus

     Netware: 2.2 and 3.11

 Arguments

     <cPServer>  Designates the name of the print server that is
     accessed.

     <nPrinter>  Designates the number of the printer on <cPServer>.
     Values between 0 and 15 are possible.

     <cServer>  Designates the name of the file server used to access
     <cPServer>.  The print server checks login information on <cServer>.
     Therefore, the access rights can therefore depend on the specified file
     server.  Your workstation must be attached to <cServer>.

     <nConId>  Designates the connection ID of your workstation on
     <cServer>.

 Returns

     NNETPSPSTA() returns a numeric value that specifies the current status
     of <nPrinter> on <cPServer>.
