IPP

Abbreviation for Internet Printing Protocol. A protocol that sends and re-

Internet.

 

IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4), widely spread today, is expressed such

 

as 192.168.1.10 using 32-bit numbers divided into four. In the next genera-

 

tion IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6), 128-bit IP addresses are used.

 

IP addresses are assigned to devices, including computers, which are con-

 

nected to the Internet.

 

 

LAN

Abbreviation for Local Area Network. A network which connects computers

 

on the same floor, in the same building, or in neighboring buildings.

Memory

Storage device for storing data temporally. When the power is turned off the

 

data may or may not be erased.

 

 

NDPS

Abbreviation for Novell Distributed Print Services. Provides a highly efficient

 

printing solution in an NDS environment. By using the NDPS as a printer

 

server, you can output from the desired printer, automatically download the

 

printer driver of a newly installed printer, simplify and automate complicated

 

management environments related to printer use, and integrate manage-

 

ment related to the network printer.

 

 

NDS

Abbreviation for Novell Directory Services. The servers and printers on a

 

network and the shared resources of the user’s information, as well as the
