IPP printing
-
Using the IPP (Internet printing protocol) print service, the computer and
this machine are connected over a network.
- The IPP print service is supported by the operating system as the stand-
ard.
- Communications are established with HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Proto-
col), one of the TCP/IP protocols. In order to prevent unauthorized ac-
cess in companies and organizations, a firewall must be installed.
However, HTTP is generally configured to allow access through the fire-
wall. Therefore, with an IPP connection where communications are es-
tablished using HTTP, printing from a computer is possible with a printer
outside of the firewall.
