Note:
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.

Example: http: address scheme
IPP address using host name | IPP address using IP address | Corresponding printer |
http://axisps:631/LPT1 | http://12.100.110.2:631/LPT1 | Printer attached to the LPT1 |
|
| parallel port |
