Final answer:

The correct remote printing protocol, IPP or LPD, is not listed in the options. FTP, HTTP, SMTP, and SNMP serve different purposes such as file transfers, web distribution, email sending, and network management respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The network protocol specifically designed to enable remote printing is not listed among the options provided (FTP, HTTP, SMTP, SNMP). However, the most commonly used protocols for remote printing are IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) and LPD (Line Printer Daemon). Neither of these are mentioned in the options given. To clarify the functions of the listed protocols:

  • FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is used for transferring files between a client and server on a computer network.
  • HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) is used for distributing hypertext pages on the World Wide Web.
  • SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) is used for sending emails.
  • SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is used for managing devices on IP networks.

Therefore, while these protocols have their own specific uses, they are not directly related to remote printing.
