Use this tab to enable or disable various protocols supported by the print server for printing, print services, and management. See Table 4.13.

Table 4.13 Other Protocols (1 of 2)

Item

Description

 

 

Enable Print

Enable or disable network protocols supported by the print

Protocols

server: IPX/SPX, AppleTalk, DLC/LLC. For example, you

 

should disable unused protocols to prevent printer access

 

using those protocols.

 

For network environments that use these protocols, see

 

Chapter 1.

 

Because it uses TCP/IP, the embedded Web server does

 

not allow disabling TCP/IP.

 

 

Enable Print Services

Enable or disable various print services supported by the

 

print server: port 9100, LPD (Line Printer Daemon), IPP

 

(Internet Printing Protocol), FTP (File Transfer Protocol).

 

Disable unused print services to prevent access through

 

those services.

 

 

Enable Device

Enable or disable device discovery protocols supported by

Discovery

the print server:

 

SLP (Service Location Protocol).

 

If enabled (checked), the HP Jetdirect print server

 

sends SLP packets, which are used by system

 

applications for automated discovery and installation.

 

If disabled (cleared), SLP packets are not sent.

 

mDNS (multicast Domain Name System).

 

If enabled (checked), Multicast Domain Name System

 

(mDNS) services are provided. mDNS is typically used

 

on small networks for IP address and name resolution

 

(through UDP port 5353) where a conventional DNS

 

server is not used.

 

Multicast IPv4.

 

If enabled (checked), the print server will send and

 

receive IP version 4 multicast packets.
