Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003 integrated software


You can use the IPP client software integrated with the Windows system instead of HP-supplied software. The IPP implementation on the HP Jetdirect print server is compatible with the Windows system IPP client software.

To set up a print path to an HP Jetdirect-connected Internet printer using the Windows 2000/XP IPP client software, use the following steps:

1.
Click Start, and then click Printers and Faxes.
2.
Run the Add Printer wizard (click Add a printer), and then click Next.
3.
Select the option for a Network printer and then click Next.
4.
Select Connect to a printer on the Internet and enter the print server’s URL, as in the following example:

http:// <IP_address> [/ipp/port#]

In the example, <IP_address> is the IPv4 address configured on the HP Jetdirect print server and [/ipp/port#] identifies the port number, which is port 1 for single-port print servers (default is /ipp/port1).

Example:
http://192.160.45.40
An IPP connection to an HP Jetdirect print server with IPv4 address 192.160.45.40. (“/ipp/port1” is assumed and not required.)
HP Jetdirect Print Servers note Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003 integrated software NOTE:

For a Secure IPP connection, replace http:// with https:// in the URL string above.

Click Next.

5.
Provide the printer driver. (The HP Jetdirect print server does not contain drivers. You might need the printer CD-ROM to install the driver.)
6.
Click OK to install the printer driver and then follow the on-screen instructions.
