1. General Information: Shows information about the current status and active
connection type of the network, and other information, such as the URL of the
embedded Web server.
2. 802.3 Wired: Shows information about the active wired network connection, such
as the IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, as well as the hardware address
of the printer.
3. 802.11 Wireless (some models): Shows information about your wireless network
connection, such as the hostname, IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and
server.
4. Miscellaneous: Shows information about more advanced network settings.
•
Port 9100: The printer supports raw IP printing through TCP Port 9100. This
HP-proprietary TCP/IP port on the printer is the default port for printing. It is
accessed by HP software (for example, the HP Standard Port).
•
LPD: Line Printer Daemon (LPD) refers to the protocol and programs
associated with line-printer spooling services that may be installed on various
TCP/IP systems.
NOTE: The LPD functionality can be used with any host implementation of
LPD that complies with the RFC 1179 document. The process for
configuring printer spoolers, however, might differ. See your system
documentation for information about configuring these systems.
•
Bonjour: Bonjour services (which use mDNS, or Multicast Domain Name
System) are typically used on small networks for IP address and name
resolution (through UDP port 5353), where a conventional DNS server is not
used.
•
SLP: Service Location Protocol (SLP) is an Internet standard network protocol
that provides a framework to allow networking applications to discover the
existence, location, and configuration of networked services in enterprise
networks. This protocol simplifies discovery and use of network resources such
as printers, Web servers, fax machines, video cameras, files systems, backup
devices (tape drives), databases, directories, mail servers, calendars.
•
Microsoft Web Services: Enable or disable the Microsoft Web Services
Dynamic Discovery (WS Discovery) protocols or Microsoft Web Services for
Devices (WSD) Print services supported on the printer. Disable unused print
services to prevent access through those services.
NOTE: For more information about WS Discovery and WSD Print, visit
•
SNMP: SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is used by network
management applications for device management. The printer supports
SNMPv1 protocol on IP networks.
•
WINS: If you have a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server on
your network, the printer automatically obtains its IP address from that server
and registers its name with any RFC 1001 and 1002-compliant dynamic name
services as long as a WINS server IP address has been specified.
5. Connected PC(s): Lists the computers connected to this printer, as well as the last
time these computers accessed the printer.
