Windows IP Printing

You can set up your computer(s) to print from your applications using an IP address instead of the WPS870G’s Printer Utility. To accomplish this, you need to add and configure a printer port on your computer with the appropriate information. With this printing method, print jobs are stored (queued) on your computer, and then sent to the WPS870G when it is available.

What Is Required

To enable this feature you need the following: An installed and connected WPS870G.

An active printer attached to the WPS870G.

The IP address of the WPS870G – it is suggested that you use a Static IP address for this feature, because an IP address supplied by a DHCP server might change.

For older versions of Windows, the IPP Client software must be installed on each computer. The IPP_Client.exe software is located on the CD-ROM supplied with the WPS870G. Windows 2000 and XP require no additional software.
