About the different methods
Windows standard TCP/IP port
The standard TCP/IP port simplifies connecting to remote printers using the TCP/IP
protocol. A computer that acts as a print server must run the TCP/IP protocol in order to
print.
Can be configured to use either LPR or RAW (e.g. Port9100).
OkiLPR
Used to connect your printer over TCP/IP using an LPR port.
OkiLPR also includes useful tools enabling you to download PS and PRN files directly to your
printer and automatically redirect jobs to other printers on the network.
IPP
The IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) defines a standard protocol for printing as well as
managing print jobs, media, resolution, etc.
NetBEUI
NetBEUI (NetBios Extended User Interface) is a protocol that was designed for use in small
workgroups or LANs. Within Windows NetBEUI is used for file and printer sharing between
computers. It provides a simple method of printing, but it does have limitations, and is not
as robust as TCP/IP or IPX. Typically it is employed in small business or home networks.
