With IPP, you can send a document to any Internet-connected printer. IPP is 
platform-independent and can be used to print over any LAN or WAN that 
supports TCP/IP. 

In order to print to a remote printer using IPP, you need the following:

•

An 

 installed on your computer together with appropriate printer 

drivers. The IPP client is a tool that adds destination printers to your printer 
list. A list of available IPP clients can be viewed in IPP clients, on page 25. 

•

The printer to which you want to send your print job needs to be connected 
to 

. Axis print servers make it possible 

for a printer to receive print jobs from an IPP client. The IPP-functionality 
of the print server is automatically activated upon installation.

 IPP Printing

Requirements

Before you print to an IPP printer you need to know:

•

the print server’s IP-address or host name 

•

the local printer port name, which for AXIS OfficeBasic USB Wireless is 

lp1.

•

the brand and model of the printer in order to install the appropriate 
printer driver.

•

the port number 631 (only used in the 1.0 standard)

The AXIS OfficeBasic USB Wireless supports the IPP 1.0 standard (which uses 
the 

http: address scheme) and the IPP 1.1 standard (which uses the ipp:// 

standard).

Example using host

name in the 1.0

standard:

If “192.168.3.191” is the IP address of the print server, "631" is the port number 
and "lp1" is the local printer port name, then the syntax of the address scheme 
will be 

http://192.168.3.191:631/lp1 in the 1.0 standard.

Example using host

name in the 1.1

standard:

If “192.168.3.191” is the IP address of the print server and "lp1" is the local 
printer port name, then the syntax of the address scheme will be 

ipp://192.168.3.191/lp1 in the 1.1 standard.

An IPP client needs to be installed on your computer together with an 

appropriate printer driver for proper IPP functionality. An IPP client is a tool 
that adds destination printers to your printer list.
