Bootp and SNMP?



We've been very succesfully using bootp to take care of our ample printer
fleet. Now our network folks would like us to begin setting some SNMP
information (community string, etc.) in addition to the regular IP info. 

I've browsed through the RFC's, but haven't seen anything that describes
this functionality. Am I ovelooking something (you know... nose on my face
type stuff), or is bootp even capable of this type of functionality. To me
this would seem to point toward a DHCP implementation and its more extensive
capabilities (according to what I'm seeing in the RFC).

Is there a good reference somewhere on enterprise IP issues? I'd like to
read how someone else has dealt with this issue. 

Thank you,
