Windows 2000/XP IPP Printing
Use the following instructions if you wish to use the IPP printing capabilities of
Windows 2000/XP.
1. Run the Add Printer Wizard and click the Next button when you see the
“Welcome to the Add Printer Wizard” screen.
2. You are now able to select “Local Printer” or “Network Printer”. Make sure
that you select “Network Printer”.
3. You will see the “Add Printer Wizard” screen.
4. Select the “Connect to a printer on the Internet or on a home or office
network” and then enter the following in the URL: field:
http://printer_ip_address:631/ipp (Where “printer_ip_address” is the IP
address or DNS name of your printer.)
5. When you click “Next”, Windows 2000/XP will make a connection with the
URL that you specified.
IF THE PRINTER DRIVER HAS ALREADY BEEN INSTALLED
If the appropriate printer driver is already installed on your PC, Windows 2000/XP
will automatically use that driver for use. In this case, you will simply be asked if
you wish to make the driver the default driver, after which the Driver installation
Wizard will complete. You are now ready to print.
IF THE PRINTER DRIVER HAS NOT BEEN INSTALLED
One of the benefits of the IPP printing protocol is that it establishes the model name
of the printer when you communicate with it. After successful communication you
will see the model name of the printer automatically, this means that you do not need
to inform Windows 2000 the type of printer driver to be used.
6. Click “OK”, you will then see the following Printer selection screen in the
Add Printer Wizard.
7. If your printer is not in the list of supported printers, click the “Have Disk”
button. You will then be asked to insert the driver disk.
8. Click the “Browse” button and select the CD-ROM or network share that
contains the appropriate print driver.
9. Now specify the model name of the printer
10. If the printer driver that you are installing does not have a Digital Certificate
you will see a warning message. Click “Yes” to continue with the
installation. The Add Printer Wizard will then complete.
11. Click the “Finish” button and the printer is now configured and ready to
print. To test the printer connection, print a test page.
