Discovering New Printers

Note: Discovery in the xPrintServer from a PC requires Bonjour®, which may be installed via iTunes® or Safari or Bonjour Print Helper ® at www.apple.com.

All printers are typically added and configured to the xPrintServer via Discovery where the xPrintServer discovers and provisions all network-connected printers as AirPrint printers.

Auto Discovery: Each time the xPrintServer starts up, the Discovery protocol runs one time automatically.
