IPP (Internet Printing Protocol)
IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) is a standards-based system to allow remote printing
from a computer to any accessible printer. Normally, the printer will be attached to a
computer or other device which functions as an IPP Server.
Client computers need a compatible IPP Client program. Windows 2000 and XP
include a suitable IPP client. For other versions of Windows, a client program is
supplied on the
Wireless USB Print Server's CD-ROM
the IP Address or URL of the IPP Server.
IPP Server Configuration
The Print Server contains the necessary firmware to act as an IPP Server. No
additional configuration is necessary. However, the following requirements must be
met.
●
The Print Server must have a valid IP Address.
●
Any router, gateway, or firewall linking your LAN to the Internet must NOT
block the IPP protocol (TCP port 631). Your router, gateway or firewall must
open or forward port TCP port 631 to the IP address of the Print Server.
●
You must advise clients of the correct URL or IP Address of the IPP Server. To
use a URL rather than an IP Address, you need to register the domain name for
the URL.
●
Unless clients are using Windows 2000 or XP, you must provide your clients
with the supplied IPP Client software. If it is not convenient to provide the CD-
ROM, supply the IPP_CLIENT.EXE file, located in the IPP folder.
