IPP
Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) defines a standard protocol for printing as well as managing print jobs, media size,
resolution, and so forth. IPP can be used locally or over the Internet to hundreds of printers, and also supports access
control, authentication, and encryption, making it a much more capable and secure printing solution
than older ones.
LDAP
The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is a networking protocol for querying and modifying directory
services running over TCP/IP.
LPD
Line Printer Daemon protocol/Line Printer Remote protocol (or LPD, LPR) also known as the Berkeley printing system,
is a set of programs that provide printer spooling and network print server functionality for Unix-like systems.
MAC
Media Access Control (MAC) data communication protocol sub-layer, also known as the Medium Access Control, is a
sublayer of the Data Link Layer specified in the seven-layer OSI model (layer 2).
mDNS
Multicast DNS (mDNS) is a protocol that is used by Apple Inc. It uses similar APIs to the unicast DNS system but
implemented differently.
MFP
Multi Function Printer/Peripheral (MFP) is an office machine that includes the following functionality in one physical
body, so as to have a printer, a copier, a fax, a scanner and etc.
MIB
A management information base (MIB) stems from the OSI/ISO Network management model and is a type of database
used to manage the devices in a communications network. It comprises a collection of objects in a (virtual) database
used to manage entities (such as routers and switches) in a network.
OPC drum
Organic Photo Conductor (OPC) is a mechanism that makes a virtual image for print using a laser beam emitted from
a laser printer, and it is usually green or gray colored and a cylinder shaped. An exposing unit of a drum is slowly worn
away by its usage of the printer, and it should be replaced appropriately since it gets scratches from grits of a paper."
Plug-in
In SyncThru™ Admin 5, plug-in is an additional feature that you can add to SyncThru™ Admin 5.
POP3
Post Office Protocol version 3 (POP3) is an application-layer Internet standard protocol used by local email clients to
retrieve email from a remote server over a TCP/IP connection.
PostgreSQL
PostgreSQL is an object-relational database management system (ORDBMS). It is released under a BSD-style license
and is thus free software.
RFC
In computer network engineering, a Request for Comments (RFC) is a memorandum published by the Internet
Engineering Task Force (IETF) describing methods, behaviors, research, or innovations applicable to the working of
the Internet and Internet-connected systems.
RFC 3805
Printer MIB version 2. This document provides definitions of models and manageable objects for printing
environments. The objects included in this MIB apply to physical, as well as logical entities within a printing device.
