  2. IEEE 1284 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_1284

    An IEEE 1284 36-pin male micro ribbon printer cable connection. The computer side normally uses a DB-25 port instead of this connector. IEEE 1284, also known as the Centronics port, is a standard that defines bi-directional parallel communications between computers and other devices.

  3. List of printing protocols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_printing_protocols

    A printing protocol is a protocol for communication between client devices (computers, mobile phones, tablets, etc.) and printers (or print servers).It allows clients to submit one or more print jobs to the printer or print server, and perform tasks such as querying the status of a printer, obtaining the status of print jobs, or cancelling individual print jobs.

  4. Parallel port - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_port

    The original IBM parallel printer adapter for the IBM PC of 1981 was designed to support limited bidirectionality, with 8 lines of data output and 4 lines of data input. [ citation needed ] This allowed the port to be used for other purposes, not just output to a printer.

  5. Advanced Function Presentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Function_Presentation

    This is the bi-directional protocol used between the host server and the printer. It is used to send the page-level data to the printer and to signal errors and accounting information back to the server. The IPDS protocol also allows the server to query a printer's available resources (e.g. available memory, fonts, input trays, etc.).

  7. Parallel Line Internet Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_Line_Internet...

    PLIP provides link layer services for the Internet Protocol, which is used for forming small local area networks and large computer networks, such as the Internet. This enables computers without standard dedicated networking hardware, such as Ethernet , but with older parallel port devices, to communicate.

  8. Duplex (telecommunications) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duplex_(telecommunications)

    A duplex communication system is a point-to-point system composed of two or more connected parties or devices that can communicate with one another in both directions. Duplex systems are employed in many communications networks, either to allow for simultaneous communication in both directions between two connected parties or to provide a reverse path for the monitoring and remote adjustment ...

  9. JetDirect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jetdirect

    AppSocket is a very similar implementation by Tektronix for Phaser printers, later sold to Xerox. [4] This protocol adds support for querying for printer status by non-printing users via a separate UDP port. [5] Most JetDirect devices also came with, JetDirect Interface, a telnet interface for configuring the device or printer. [6]
