Select Network Printer.

ip_address

is the IP address, NetBIOS

name or DNS name of the print server).

5

Click the Next button.

Windows

Follow the Wizard through to the end of the installation.

Clients

It is also possible to send IPP print jobs from a Windows

®

95/98/Me client PC, provided that the PC has

the ability to connect to and access Windows

®

2000/XP resources. Visit the Microsoft web site

(www.microsoft.com) and download the Windows

®

Internet Print Services support software for

Windows

®

systems.

Once installed, this software will allow you to connect to a Windows

®

2000/XP system that is also running

IIS and send print jobs using the IPP protocol.

By using Microsoft's IPP software you can also send jobs to other printers that do not support the IPP
protocol.
