This chapter contains descriptions on the network printing terms and the IPP

printing methods.

BOOTP

BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) is an Internet protocol that enables a diskless

workstation to discover (1) its own IP address, (2) the IP address of a BOOTP

server on the network, and (3) a file that can be loaded into memory to boot

the workstation. This enables the workstation to boot without requiring a hard

or floppy disk drive.

DHCP

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol for assigning

dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing, a

device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network.

In some systems, the device's IP address can even change while it is still

connected. DHCP also supports a mix of static and dynamic IP addresses.

Dynamic addressing simplifies network administration because the software

keeps track of IP addresses rather than requiring an administrator to manage

the task. This means that a new computer can be added to a network without

the hassle of manually assigning it a unique IP address.
