How to Print from
Windows NT
Before you print to an IPP printer you will need to know:
• the address of the print server. The address contains the IP address
or host name of the print server and the printer port name.
• the brand and type of the printer in order to install the appropriate
printer driver.
1. Select the IPP printer to which you want to send your document. Select
the destination printer from your Printer Name list (in File | Print |
Printer Setup).
The printer name will begin with a URL: http://...
If your destination printer does not exist in your Printer Name list,
you need to add it. Adding an IPP printer to your printer list is
described below.
2. Press Print. The print job is sent over the Internet/WAN to the Axis Network
Print Server, which then forwards the print job to the destination printer.
3. The recipient of the print job can collect the print job at the destination
printer.
