Use this tab to enable or disable various protocols supported by the print server for printing, print services, and management. The items are described in Other protocols.

Description
Enable Print Protocols
Select the print protocols to use: IPX/SPX, AppleTalk, or DLC/LLC. (Disable unused protocols to prevent access.)
For network environments that use these protocols, see Introducing the HP Jetdirect print server.
Because the embedded Web server uses TCP/IP, you cannot disable this protocol.
HP Jetdirect Print Servers note Other NOTE:

On HP Jetdirect 635n print servers, all network protocols except TCP/IP are disabled by factory default.

Enable Print Services
Select the print services to use: port 9100, LPD, IPP, FTP, or Web Services Print. (Disable unused print services to prevent access.)
Enable Device Discovery
Select device discovery protocols supported by the print server:
SLP
If enabled, the HP Jetdirect print server sends SLP packets, which are used by system applications for automated discovery and installation.
If disabled, SLP packets are not sent.
If SLP uses multicast protocols, you must enable multicast IPv4.
Bonjour
If enabled, Bonjour services are provided. Bonjour is typically used on for IP address and name resolution (through UDP port 5353) where a conventional DNS server is not used.
For Bonjour operation, you must enable multicast IPv4.
Multicast IPv4
If enabled, the print server sends and receives IP version 4 multicast packets. If disabled, other protocols that use multicast protocols (such as Bonjour and SLP), might be disabled without notification.
WS-Discovery Microsoft Web Services Dynamic Discovery (WS Discovery) protocols on the print server.
Naming Resolution
Indicates whether link local multicast name resolution (LLMNR) requests are responded to over IPv4 and IPv6.
Enable Management Protocols
Select the management protocols to use: Telnet, FTP Firmware Update, or RCFG. Telnet and FTP are not secure protocols and device passwords can be intercepted.
RCFG, a remote IPX configuration protocol used by older management tools to configure Novell NetWare parameters. Disabling RCFG does not affect direct mode printing using IPX/SPX.
It is recommended that you disable Telnet, FTP firmware upgrades, and RCFG.
