We recommend to use IPPS protocol for secure management. To use the IPPS protocol, the following
machine settings are required.

Note

• Communication using IPPS cannot prevent unauthorized access to the print server.
• You must also install the certificate you have installed to the machine onto your computer. See Installing

the self-signed certificate or pre-installed certificate onto Windows Vista

following in the URL field:
“https://machine’s IP address/ipp” (where “machine’s IP address” is the machine’s IP address or the
node name.)

Note

• It is important that you use “https://” and not “http://” otherwise printing over IPP will not be secure.
• If you have edited the hosts file on your computer or are using a Domain Name System (DNS), you can

also enter the DNS name of the print server. As the print server supports TCP/IP and NetBIOS names,
you can also enter the NetBIOS name of the print server. The NetBIOS name can be seen in the Network
Configuration Report. (To learn how to print the Network Configuration Report, see Printing the Printer
Settings Page (For HL-5450DN(T))
uu page 29
or Printing the Network Configuration Report (For other
models)
uu page 29.
) The NetBIOS name assigned is the first 15 characters of the node name, and by
default it will appear as “BRNxxxxxxxxxxxx” for a wired network or “BRWxxxxxxxxxxxx” for a wireless
network. (“xxxxxxxxxxxx” is your machine’s MAC Address / Ethernet Address.)
