Wireless PrintServer
Chapter 8: 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 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 or IPP Server.
The Wireless PrintServer contains the necessary firmware to act as an IPP
Server. No additional configuration is necessary. However, the following
requirements must be met:
· The Wireless PrintServer must have a valid IP Address. For printing via
the Internet, the Wireless PrintServer's IP Address must be external (allo-
cated 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 pro-
vide the CD-ROM, supply the IPP CLIENT.EXE file, located in the IPP
folder.
Note: Linksys does not provide technical support for Internet printing.
