Hi all,
another OT post, but then this list is getting pretty good with that
sort of thing!
I'm playing around with a new printer at work (Xerox Document Center
C360). It's a bit of a monster, but it does have some good features.
Anyway, I'm wondering what protocol I should use to talk to it? I did a
port scan and found these ports open:
80 http
111 sunrpc
139 netbios-ssn
515 printer
631 ipp
1025 ?
1605 ?
I've so far tried printing via a samba share on our server, which seems
to work; and direct using ipp, which worked.
My question is really what's the difference? Are some features
supported better on some protocols? Are some faster / less resource
intensive?
I'm using cups and gimp-print to get the driver for it.
I'd appreciate any info. Thanks!
