95/98/Me/2000/XP IPP Troubleshooting

Want to use a different Port number other than 631

If you are using Port 631 for IPP printing, you may find that your
firewall may not let the print data through. If this is the case, use a
different port number (port 80), or configure your Firewall to allow
Port 631 data through.

To send a print job using IPP to a printer using Port 80 (the standard
HTTP port) enter the following when configuring your Windows

®

2000/XP system.

http://ip_address/ipp

Get More Info option in Windows

®

2000 not working

If you are using a URL of:

http://ip_address:631 or http://ip_address:631/
ipp

, the Get More Info option in Windows

®

2000 will not function. If

you wish to use the Get More Info option use the following URL:

http://ip_address

This will then force Windows

®

2000/XP to use Port 80 to

communicate with the Brother print server.
