Special Features
This chapter covers the special features of the Print Server.
Overview
The Print Server has four (4) special features:
•
Some Print Servers support IPP (Internet Printing Protocol).
•
All model support the proprietary
Internet Mail Printing
system.
•
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is supported by all models.
•
Wireless Station (Optional) - supported by FPS-1PW and FPS-1UW only.
Internet Printing Protocol (IPP)
IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) is a new standards-based system to allow remote printing from
a PC to any accessible printer. Normally, the printer will be attached to a computer or other
device which functions as an
IPP Server
.
For client PCs, it is necessary to install a compatible
IPP Client
program. The Client must also
know the IP Address or URL or the IPP Server.
IPP support is NOT available on models PS-5P-S, PS-5P-M,
FPS-5P-S and FPS-5P-M.
Do NOT attempt to use IPP on these models.
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. For printing via the Internet, the Print
Server's IP Address must be external (allocated by your ISP), rather than an IP Address on
your local LAN.
•
Any Router, Gateway or Firewall linking your LAN to the Internet must NOT block the
IPP protocol.
•
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.
