5. Click "OK", and then select the printer manufacturer and model to match the printer

The IPP printer is now ready for use.
Using IPP Printers
The IPP Printer can be selected and used like any other Windows printer. If the IPP Server is
not on your network, your Internet connection needs to be active.
If using the supplied IPP Client software, you can use the Query IPP Printer program installed
with Add IPP Port to check the availability of the remote IPP Server.
An IPP Server may be unavailable for any of the following reasons:
• It is powered off.
• A printer problem has caused the IPP Server to cease responding, and a restart (reboot) is
required.
• The Server's IP Address has changed.
• The Internet connection for the IPP Server is down.
• Network congestion causes the connection attempt to time out.
If using the supplied IPP Client software, there are 2 settings - Retry Interval and Retry Count -
which can be adjusted if you have problems connecting to the IPP Server.
See the previous section Changing the IPP Port Settings for details.
Internet Mail Printing
The Internet Mail Printing System allows users to print data to your printer across the Internet.
Users send the Internet Print Server an E-Mail, with the print job normally sent as an
attachment to the E-Mail. The Print Server will retrieve the E-Mail and print it.
System Requirements
Mail Server
• Accessibility. The Mail Server must be accessible by the intended clients or users.
Normally, this means a permanent connection to the Internet.
• Protocols. The Mail Server must support the POP3 and SMTP protocols. The Internet
Printing System uses these protocols and the most common E-Mail formatting standards:
• MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions)
• Base64 Encoding (for mail attachments)
Internet Print Server
• TCIP/IP Protocol. The LAN must use the TCP/IP protocol.
• Mail Server Access. The Print Server must be able to access the Mail Server using a
single IP address.
• Mail Account. The Print Server must have a Mail Account. Users print by sending an E-
Mail to this mail account.
