Chapter 7: Internet Printing Protocol (IPP)
Overview
Wireless-G PrintServer for USB 2.0
Chapter 8: Internet Printing Protocol (IPP)
Overview
Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) is a standards-based system that allows remote printing from a PC to any
accessible printer. Normally, the printer will be attached to a computer or other device that 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 of the IPP Server.
The PrintServer contains the necessary firmware to act as an IPP Server. No additional configuration is
necessary. However, the following requirements must be met:
The PrintServer must have a valid IP Address. For printing via the Internet, the PrintServer’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 IPP. (IPP uses Port Services
631/TCP.)
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, you must provide your clients with the supplied IPP Client software. If
it is not convenient to provide the CD-ROM, supply the setup.exe file, located in the IPP folder.
Windows IPP Client Setup
Installing using setup.exe
1.
Run this program, located at d:\driver\ipp\setup.exe, to unzip the included files.
2.
The IPP Setup program will then run.
3.
Follow the prompts to complete the installation.
IPP Client Configuration for Windows 98, Me, 2000, and XP
1.
Run the
Add IPP Port program
entry created by the installation. A screen like the one shown in Figure 7-2
will be displayed.

2.
Enter the IP Address or URL of the IPP Server.
3.
If Internet access from your location is via a Proxy Server, check
Access IPP Server via Proxy Server
, and
enter details of your Proxy Server. (This will be the same as your browser configuration.)
4.
Click
Select Device Port
to view the available ports on the IPP Server, and select the appropriate port. (See
Figure 7-2.) A connection to the IPP Server will be established at this time.
5.
Click
OK
to create the IPP port on your system. You will see a message confirming that the port has been
created, and then you will see Figure 7-3.
6.
Perform one of these steps.
Select an existing printer to use the new port, and click
OK
.
OR
Click the
Add New Printer
button to create a new printer that will use the IPP port. This will start the Add
Printer Wizard. Follow the prompts to complete the process. Make sure that the new printer uses the IPP port.
Installation is now complete.
To create additional IPP ports, repeat the entire procedure.
The Proxy Server and other options are set individually for each IPP port.
