Network Printing

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)” on page 195.
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 Remote) is a platform-
independent 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 standard.
NetBEUI
NetBEUI (NetBIOS Extended User Interface) is a networking protocol devel-
oped by IBM. It allows small-scale networks to easily be constructed simply
by specifying the computer name.
SLP
Traditionally, in order to locate services on the network, users had to supply
the host name or network address of the machine providing the desired ser-
vice. This has created many administrative problems.
However, SLP (Service Location Protocol) simplifies the discovery and use of
network resources such as printers by automating a number of network ser-
vices. It provides a framework that allows networking applications to discover
the existence, location, and configuration of networked services.
With SLP users no longer need to know the names of network hosts. Instead,
they need to know only the description of the service they are interested in.
Based on this description, SLP is able to return the URL of the desired
service.
