HTTP

HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) is the underlying protocol used by the
World Wide Web. It defines how messages are formatted and transmitted,
and what actions web servers and browsers should take in response to vari-
ous commands. For example, when you enter a URL in your browser, this
actually sends an HTTP command to the Web server directing it to fetch and
transmit the requested web page.

IPP

IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) is a protocol for end users’ most common
printing situations over the Internet. It allows users to find out about a printer’s
capabilities, submit print jobs to a printer, determine the status of the printer
or print job, and cancel a previously submitted print job.
For more information on using IPP, See “Printing via IPP (Internet Printing
Protocol) – Windows Server 2003/XP/2000” on page 32.

IPX/SPX

IPX/SPX (Internetwork Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange) is a
networking protocol developed by Novell. It was used mainly in Netware envi-
ronments as the general LAN protocol, where TCP/IP has become
wide-spread.

LPD/LPR

LPD/LPR (Line Printer Daemon/Line Printer Request) is a platform-indepen-
dent printing protocol that runs over TCP/IP. Originally implemented for BSD
UNIX, its use has spread into the desktop world and is now an industry stan-
dard.

SNMP

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is actually a set of protocols
for managing complex networks. SNMP works by sending messages to differ-
ent parts of a network. SNMP-compliant devices, called agents, store data
about themselves in Management Information Bases (MIBs) and return this
data to the SNMP requesters.

Port 9100

When printing through a network, TCP/IP port number 9100 can be used to
send raw data.
