AXIS OfficeBasic USB Wireless
With IPP, you can send a document to any Internet-connected printer. IPP is
platform-independent and can be used to print over any LAN or WAN that
supports TCP/IP.
In order to print to a remote printer using IPP, you need the following:
IPP client
• An installed on your computer together with appropriate printer
drivers. The IPP client is a tool that adds destination printers to your printer
list. A list of available IPP clients can be viewed in IPP clients, on page 25.
• The printer to which you want to send your print job needs to be connected
a print server with IPP functionality
to
for a printer to receive print jobs from an IPP client. The IPP-functionality
of the print server is automatically activated upon installation.
Before you print to an IPP printer you need to know:
• the print server's IP-address or host name
the local printer port name, which for AXIS OfficeBasic USB Wireless is lp1.
•
• the brand and model of the printer in order to install the appropriate
printer driver.
• the port number 631 (only used in the 1.0 standard)
The AXIS OfficeBasic USB Wireless supports the IPP 1.0 standard (which uses
the http: address scheme) and the IPP 1.1 standard (which uses the ipp://
standard).
If "192.168.3.191" is the IP address of the print server, "631" is the port number
and "lp1" is the local printer port name, then the syntax of the address scheme
will be http://192.168.3.191:631/lp1 in the 1.0 standard.
If "192.168.3.191" is the IP address of the print server and "lp1" is the local
printer port name, then the syntax of the address scheme will be
ipp://192.168.3.191/lp1 in the 1.1 standard.
An IPP client needs to be installed on your computer together with an
appropriate printer driver for proper IPP functionality. An IPP client is a tool
that adds destination printers to your printer list.
