Thanks. We are getting new Xerox printers at work. The older ones, could only be supported with LPD. The newer ones have more capability, thus my question.

Subject: Re: Comparing LPD, PJL, SNMP, and IPP

http://wiki.midrange.com/index.php/Setting_up_a_printer

* A *LAN *IPDS device description
* A *LAN 3812 SNMP device description
* A *LAN 3812 IPP device description
* A *LAN 3812 PJL device description
* A Remote Output Queue (RMTOUTQ) (also known as LPD/[LPR]]

The list above as been reordered from the list shown in the IBM
document based upon order of preference. A *LAN *IPDS device is the
most preferred option for an IBM System i network printer; while a
Remote Output Queue is the least preferred. The relative preference of
SNMP, IPP, and PJL are subjective and based upon the SNMP vs IPP
thread in the comp.sys.ibm.as400.misc newsgroup.

HTH,

How would the four protocols be ranked?  I have seen that LPD is probably the least desirable, when multiple systems send data.  But what about the other three?
