When the EX7750 is connected to a network, it behaves as a networked PostScript 
printer. The built-in Ethernet interface on the EX7750 supports the following 
network protocols (rules that enable computers on a network to communicate with 
each other):

• AppleTalk

• TCP/IP 

TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. The lpd 
protocol is the standard TCP/IP printing protocol. The nbt protocol supports 
Windows (SMB) printing. The SMTP (simple mail transfer protocol) is the 
protocol that sends e-mail between servers. The SNMP (simple network 
management protocol) manages complex networks. The port 9100 is the printer 
server port number to publish print connections between the print server and a 
remote computer. The IMAP (internet message access protocol) retrieves e-mail 
messages. The POP3 (post office protocol) retrieves e-mail messages with or without 
SMTP. The http (hypertext transfer protocol) is commonly used for Web pages on 
the Internet and on intranets. The http also supports IPP printing.

In addition, the DHCP and BOOTP are used for assigning IP addresses 
automatically. These are not shown in the diagrams in this chapter. For more

• IPX/SPX (Novell)

IPX/SPX stands for Internetwork Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange.
