User Requirements
The IPP protocol does not require any special configuration of the
print server, the IPP function is automatically activated when you
install your AXIS 5400 Print Server.
IPP is platform independant and functional in Windows (NT, 95, 98
and 2000), Macintosh, OS/2, NetWare and UNIX environments.
Currently available IPP clients include:
• the Internet Printer Connection software from Hewlett Packard
for WindowsNT,
• the Microsoft IPP Client delivered with Windows 2000,
• IPP clients for Windows ‘95 and ‘98 that can be downloaded
from the Microsoft web site.
• the Common Unix Printing System for Unix/Linux
environments.
Firewall
Considerations
If there are one or more firewalls between the IPP Client and the
server, you may have to make some changes to the firewall
configuration. IPP uses TCP port 631 for printing, so any firewalls
between client and server must be configured to allow bi-directional
traffic on that port. Please consult your network administrator if you
think any configuration changes are neccesary.
IPP Compliance The Axis print server with integrated IPP is compatible with any 1.0
and 1.1 - compliant IPP client. The AXIS 5400 Print Server presents
IPP Printer objects to the client, one for each printer port.
Note:
 Axis firmware including IPP can be down-loaded free of charge
from the Axis website http://www.axis.com.
 The details on how to print will vary between different IPP
clients. Please refer to your client documentation for more specific
information.
