Network Printing
The Phaser 6120 printer supports the following network protocols:
BOOTP
DHCP
HTTP
IPP
LPD/LPR
SLP
SNMP
Port 9100
SMTP
This chapter defines each of these protocols and then explains how to print
via IPP.
BOOTP
BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) is an Internet protocol that enables a diskless
workstation to discover (1) its own IP address, (2) the IP address of a BOOTP
server on the network, and (3) a file that can be loaded into memory to boot
the workstation. This enables the workstation to boot without requiring a hard
or floppy disk drive.
DHCP
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol for assigning
dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing, a
device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network.
In some systems, the device’s IP address can even change while it is still
connected. DHCP also supports a mix of static and dynamic IP addresses.
Dynamic addressing simplifies network administration because the software
keeps track of IP addresses rather than requiring an administrator to manage
the task. This means that a new computer can be added to a network without
the hassle of manually assigning it a unique IP address.
