For Windows
®
2000: Select Connect to a printer on the Internet or on your intranet and then enter
the following in the URL field: http://printer_ipaddress:631/ipp (Where
printer_ipaddress is the IP address or the print server name).
For Windows
®
XP: Select Connect to a printer on the Internet or on a home or office network and
then enter the following in the URL field: http://printer_ipaddress:631/ipp (Where
printer_ipaddress is the IP address or the print server name).
Note
If you have edited the hosts file on your computer or are using Domain Name System (DNS), you can also
enter the DNS name of the print server. As the print server supports TCP/IP and NetBIOS names, you can
also enter the NetBIOS name of the print server. The NetBIOS name can be seen in the Network
Configuration List. The NetBIOS name assigned is the first 15 characters of the node name and by default it
will appear as BRN_xxxxxx where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the Ethernet address.

When you click Next, Windows
®
2000/XP will make a connection with the URL that you specified.
If the printer driver has already been installed:
If the appropriate printer driver is already installed on your PC, Windows
®
2000/XP will automatically use that
driver for use. In this case, you will simply be asked if you wish to make the driver the default driver, after
which the Driver installation Wizard will complete. You are now ready to print.
If the printer driver has NOT been installed:
One of the benefits of the IPP printing protocol is that it establishes the model name of the printer when you
communicate with it. After successful communication you will see the model name of the printer
automatically. This means that you do not need to inform Windows
®
2000/XP the type of printer driver to be
used.
