Configure WSD (Web Services on Devices)
As stated by Microsoft, WSD is Microsoft’s implementation of the Devices Profile for Web Services
(DPWS) standard, a specification that enables devices, such as printers, cell phones, cameras, and home
entertainment centers, to use standard Web-based protocols (HTTP and UDP) to discover one another,
advertise their services over the IP (versions 4 or 6) network, and report on their operational status.
Typically, a device such as a network printer will use a small amount of flash memory to store WSD-related
information. The WSD device then advertises a primary endpoint that can be located through WS-
Discovery (via UDP) on a Windows Vista client.
The endpoint supplies metadata about itself through WS-Metadata Transfer. This information typically
includes manufacturer, device information, and service host metadata (information on offered services).
WSD provides two way communication, enabling a printer to both receive jobs and to send status
notifications to Windows clients when events occur, such as supplies running low.
To configure this multifunction device for WSD, perform the following steps.
1. Open your Web browser and enter the TCP/IP address of the Device in the Address or Location field.
Press Enter.
2. Click the Properties tab.
3. Click the plus symbol (+) to the left of Connectivity, then the Protocols file folder.
4. Select WSD in the directory tree.
5. The available selections include:
Port Number - Enter the port number between 1 and 65535. Port 80 is the recommended HTTP
default. Do not use the numbers assigned to the other ports.
TBCP Filter - Check to enable TBCP Filter when PostScript data is to be processed. This is only
available when the optional PostScript 3 kit is installed. When the transmission data includes binary
data or EPS data, disable this. For Windows, follow the Output Protocol setting in the Device Settings
tab of the Properties screen of the print driver.
Data Receive Time-Out - Enter the timeout period for receiving data from WSD clients between 1 and
65535 seconds in 1 second increments.
Notification Delivery Time-Out - Enter the timeout period for notification delivery to WSD clients
between 1 and 60 seconds in 1 second increments.
Maximum TTL - The Time to Live setting (in seconds) for undelivered IP datagrams (such as UDP
being used with WSD). Enter a value 1 and 10.
Maximum Number of Subscribers - Enter the maximum number of clients for reserved notification
between 1 and 200.
6. Click the Apply button to apply setting changes, or the Undo button to return settings to their previous
values.
Note: Setting changes are not applied until you restart the Device. There is a convenient Reboot
Machine button on the Status Tab of Internet Services.
