Internet Mail Printing

The Internet Mail Printing System allows users to print data to your printer across the Internet. Users send the Internet Wireless Print Server an E-Mail, with the print job normally sent as an attachment to the E-Mail. The Wireless Print Server will retrieve the E-Mail and print it.

System Requirements

Mail Server

•Accessibility. The Mail Server must be accessible by the intended clients or users. Normally, this means a permanent connection to the Internet.

•Protocols. The Mail Server must support the POP3 and SMTP protocols. The Internet Printing System uses these protocols and the most common E-Mail formatting standards:

•MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions)

•Base64 Encoding (for mail attachments)

Internet Wireless Print Server

•TCIP/IP Protocol. The LAN must use the TCP/IP protocol.

•Mail Server Access. The Wireless Print Server must be able to access the Mail Server using a single IP address.

•Mail Account. The Wireless Print Server must have a Mail Account. Users print by sending an E-Mail to this mail account.

User (Client) Requirements

•Internet Connection. Either through a LAN, or dial-up.

•E-Mail address. This is used to notify the user that their print job has been done, or if there any problems.

•Printer Driver. Users must have a printer driver which matches the printer connected to the remote Internet Wireless Print Server.

•Print Capture Software. To print more than plain text, users require InterNet Printing Port software to capture the print job and convert it into an E-Mail attachment.

The Internet Printing Port software is available for the following operating systems:

•Microsoft Windows 95, 98, or ME

•Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000
