IPP requires a full time internet connection at the location where the

printer is installed.

Port 631 is the default port for IPP. The router on the network needs to

pass port 631 through to the local IP address of the USB Print Server.

Please see the documentation for the router to setup port forwarding

properly.

The ’Port’ name from Page 5 will be needed.

Please follow the following steps to properly setup IPP:

Windows 2000 & XP

Open the ‘Printers and Faxes’ folder. To do so, open the ‘Control

Panel’ and then open the ‘Printers and Faxes’ folder. Double click on

the ‘Add Printer’ icon. This will open the ‘Add Printer Wizard’. Click

the ‘Next’ button.

NOTE: Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) is NOT supported in Windows

98 or Windows ME due to a lack of TCP/IP printing support.

Internet Printing Protocol (IPP)

Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) allows a computer in a remote location

to print to an installed printer at a home or office over the internet.

Practical applications would include printing to a work printer from home,

printing to a work printer on a business trip, etc.
