A printing protocol is a protocol for communication between client devices (computers, mobile phones, tablets, etc.) and printers (or print servers).It allows clients to submit one or more print jobs to the printer or print server, and perform tasks such as querying the status of a printer, obtaining the status of print jobs, or cancelling individual print jobs.
A server for the LPD protocol listens for requests on TCP port 515. [1] A request begins with a byte containing the request code, followed by the arguments to the request, and is terminated by an ASCII LF character. An LPD printer is identified by the IP address of the server machine and the queue name on that machine. Many different queue ...
As of 2021 the supplied printer-drivers support a total of 3,088 HP printer models; [3] many of these for low-end models are free and open-source (FOSS), licensed under MIT, BSD, and GPL licenses, but others (including all color laser MFC printers on the market for years) require proprietary binary blobs ("plug-ins").
IPP uses TCP with port 631 as its well-known port. Products using the Internet Printing Protocol include Universal Print from Microsoft, [23] CUPS (which is part of Apple macOS and many BSD and Linux distributions and is the reference implementation for most versions of IPP [24]), Novell iPrint, and Microsoft Windows versions starting from MS ...
HP JetDirect was first introduced in March 1991 (code named QuickSilver) with the LaserJet IIIsi network printer (code named Eli). JetDirect is based on HP's MIO (Modular Input/Output) interface, which was designed from the ground up with the IIIsi to create a mainstream full function high performance networked printer.
MPPs are used to control which users have access to device features like color, duplex, etc. By default, HP UPD assumes that the HP MPA is installed on a server named managed-print. As a result, HP UPD searches the network for this server to find HP Managed Print Policies or HP Managed Printer Lists. HP UPD Managed Printer Lists and Print Policies
Server Message Block (SMB) is a communication protocol [1] used to share files, printers, serial ports, and miscellaneous communications between nodes on a network. On Microsoft Windows , the SMB implementation consists of two vaguely named Windows services : "Server" (ID: LanmanServer ) and "Workstation" (ID: LanmanWorkstation ). [ 2 ]
In computer networking, a print server, or printer server, is a type of server that connects printers to client computers over a network. [1] It accepts print jobs from the computers and sends the jobs to the appropriate printers, queuing the jobs locally to accommodate the fact that work may arrive more quickly than the printer can actually handle.
