How It Works
In order to print using IPP, you need to be able to access a printer
which is connected to the AXIS 1620 with integrated IPP. Once you
have access to the destination printer, you are ready to print to the
printer of your choice e.g. via the Internet.
The URL for the destination printer is defined in the print server host
name, the port number and the local printer name, in that order.
When using IPP printing over the Internet with the AXIS 1620, the
host name used for the Axis print server could be “axisps”, for
example. The port number used is 631, followed by the local printer
name (Ex. LPT1).
A walk-through example of the IPP printing process is perhaps the
best way to describe the IPP functionality:
1. As a LAN-user in a Windows environment, you wish to print a
document on a color printer which is integrated in another LAN
and located in another city.
2. Proceed with selecting the IPP printer to which you want to send
your document from your Printer Name list (In File | Print). The
name structure of the printer begins with
http://axisps:631/....
3. If your destination printer URL does not exist in your Printer
Name list, you need to add it. (See the examples below for
Windows environments).
