Setting a Proxy

1525-04K

A proxy (or HTTP proxy server) refers to a computer or software that carries out HTTP communication for other

devices, especially when communicating with resources outside the network, such as when browsing Web sites. The

client devices connect to the outside network through the proxy server, and do not communicate directly to the

resources outside. Setting a proxy not only facilitates management of traffic between in-house and outside networks

but also blocks unauthorized access and consolidates anti-virus protection for enhanced security. When you use

Google Cloud Print to print over the Internet, you can enhance security by setting a proxy. When setting a proxy, make

sure that you have the necessary proxy information, including the IP address, port number, and a user name and

password for authentication.
