TCP/IP
Computers and printers primarily use TCP/IP protocols to communicate over an Ethernet network.
Bonjour is a discovery protocol that allows devices on a TCP/IP network to discover each other
without knowledge of specific IP addresses. Bonjour is built in to Macintosh operating systems. You
can install Bonjour on Windows devices.
With TCP/IP protocols, each printer and computer requires a unique IP address. Many networks, and
cable and DSL routers have a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. A DHCP server
automatically assigns an IP address to every computer and printer on the network that is configured
to use DHCP.
If you use a cable or DSL router, for information on IP addressing, refer to the documentation for your
router.
