IPP Client Setup for Windows 2000 and XP

Windows 2000 and XP have their own IPP Client, and there is no need to install
the supplied IPP Client Software. To use this IPP Client with the PrintServer,
follow this procedure:

1. Start the Add Printer Wizard.

2. Select Network Printer and click Next to see the Locate your Printer screen,

as shown in Figure 8-4.

3. Select Connect to a printer on the Internet or on your intranet, and enter

the URL of the IPP Server as follows, where ip_address represents the IP
Address of the IPP Server, and 631 represents the port number.

Port 1

ip_address:631/ipp/P1

1. Open the Printers folder (Start => Settings => Printers).

2. Right-click the IPP Printer and select Properties.

3. Click the Port Settings or Configure Port button (Details or Port tab,

depending on your version of Windows). The Configure IPP Port screen
(shown in Figure 8-3) will appear.

There are two settings—Retry Interval and Retry Count—that can be adjust-
ed if you have problems connecting to the IPP Server.

· Retry Interval sets the time interval (in seconds) between connection

attempts. Increase this number if you have a poor connection, or the
remote server is very busy.

· Retry Count sets how many connection attempts will be made. Increase

this number if you have a poor connection, or the remote server is very
busy.

Note: Verify that USB 1 appears in the field beside the Select
Device Port
button. If it does not, click the Select Device Port
button, and select USB 1.
