Channels
Wireless networks use channels. Each wireless channel is on a different frequency. There are up to 14 different
channels that can be used when using a wireless network. However, in many countries the number of channels
available is restricted.
Custom Raw Port
Custom raw port is a commonly used printing protocol on a TCP/IP network that enables interactive data
transmission. Default is Port 9100.
D
Density
Changing the Density makes the whole image lighter or darker.
DHCP
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network protocol that is used to configure network devices
so that they can communicate on an IP Network.
NOTE:
To use DHCP, contact your network administrator°
Digital Signature
A Digital Signature is a value computed with a cryptographic algorithm and appended to a data object in such a way
that any recipient of the data can use the signature to verify the data's origin and integrity.
DNS Client
The Dell print server supports the Domain Name System (DNS) client feature. This feature allows the print server
to communicate with other devices using its DNS name.
DNS Server
The Domain Name System (DNS) is a technology to manage the names of web sites and internet domains. A DNS
server allows your computer to automatically find its IP address.
E
Encryption
Most wireless networks use some kind of security settings. These security settings define the authentication (how
the device identifies itself to the network) and encryption (how the data is encrypted as it is sent on the network). If
you do not correctly specify these options when you are configuring your Dell wireless machine, it will not be able to
connect to the wireless network. Therefore, care must be taken when configuring these options.
