Procedure for specifying attributes

1. Add a new printer definition. On the Choose a Definition Type and Protocol panel, select IP PrintWay™ IPP. If you copy a printer definition, select an IP PrintWay printer definition that uses the IPP protocol.

2. On the IPP Protocol panel, specify these fields:
   • URL: Specify the uniform resource locator (URL) of the IPP server. Consult your IPP printer or IPP print server documentation for the format of the URL to use. The format of the URL depends on the implementation of the IPP printer or print server and varies among printer manufacturers.
