bonjour-svc-name

Bonjour service name. This name is persistent and is used to resolve a particular device or

 

service if socket information (such as the IP address) changes from session to session.

 

Apple Bonjour displays this service. The default service name is the printer model and the

 

LAN hardware (MAC) address. Enter up to 64 alphanumeric characters.

 

 

Bonjour Domain Name

(Read only.) Bonjour domain name assigned to the device, in the form <host name>.local.

 

If a user-specified host name is not assigned, the default host name NPIxxxxxx is used,

 

where xxxxxx are the last 6 digits of the LAN hardware (MAC) address.

 

 

bonjour-pri-svc

Highest priority Bonjour service to use for printing. Set this parameter using the following

 

values:

 

1: Port 9100 printing

 

2: IPP port printing

 

3: Default LPD raw queue

 

4: Default LPD text queue

 

5: Default LPD auto queue

 

6: Default LPD binps (binary PostScript) queue

 

7 through 12: If user-specified LPD queues are defined, corresponds to user-specified LPD

 

queues 5 through 10.

 

Although the default selection depends on the printer, it is typically Port 9100 printing or

 

LPD binps.

 

 

ftp-download

Download firmware upgrade files to the print server, using FTP.

 

0: Disable.

 

1 (default): Enable.

 

 

ttl-slp

IP multicast time-to-live (TTL) setting for SLP packets. The default value is 4 hops (the

 

number of routers from the local network). Set from 1 to 15 hops.

 

-1: Disable.

 

4 (default): Enable multicast TTL.

 

 

ipv4-multicast

Receive and transmit IP version 4 multicast packets by the print server.

 

0: Disable.

 

1 (default): Enable.

 

NOTE: If disabled, other protocols that use multicast protocols, such as Bonjour and

 

SLP, might also be disabled without notification.

 

 

idle-timeout

Seconds that an idle print data connection can remain open. Set from 1 to 3600 seconds.
