Absolute Pathname	The full path of a file, including the computer system and
	any directories or subdirectories. For example,
	c:\program files\monarch software\mpcl
	toolbox\9855.phu
Access Point	An interface between a wireless network and a wired
	network. Access points can be used with Ethernet or
	other communications to enable roaming throughout a
	facility.
Ad-Hoc	A wireless network composed of devices that contain a
Network/Mode	network interface card and no access point.
	Ad-Hoc mode is also called peer-to-peer (point-to-point)
	communications or BSS network. As long as the devices
	are in range and are on the same channel and SSID, they
	connect and communicate. Use this mode if a wireless
	infrastructure does not exist or where services are not
	required.

	if the IP address is not automatically set using any of the
	previous methods.
BOOTP or	One of the available boot methods. It is a protocol used
Bootstrap Protocol	by devices that know their MAC address, but do not know
	their IP address. The device broadcasts its hardware
	address and the BOOTP server responds with the IP
	address for it. The network administrator must enter the
	MAC address in the BOOTP Config file to obtain the IP
	address from the server.
Boot Method	The wireless print server uses this method to obtain an IP
	address. Can be set to Auto, DHCP, BOOTP, RARP, or
	Static.
Boot Tries	The number of times the device tries to get an IP address
	from the server when using the BOOTP and DHCP
	methods.
