Configuring an IPP client

To configure your Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) client, specify the URL of the IPP printer.

For example, in Windows 2000, follow these steps:

  1. Click Start > Settings > Printers > Add Printer.
  2. Click Next.
  3. Select Network printer and click Next.
  4. Select Connect to a printer on the Internet or on your intranet and type the URL of your IPP printer into the URL field. Click Next. You might be prompted for a user ID and password, and for a security certificate, depending on the level of security that you chose.

    If you receive a message about an unknown printer, click OK and select the appropriate printer driver.

  5. Specify if you want this printer to be the Windows default printer and click Next.
  6. Click Finish.
