iPrint is Novell's next generation of printing software that lets users print to and from all destinations.

A standard Web page displays available printers to the user.

By clicking a printer, the iPrint client is installed (if not installed previously), the printer's driver is downloaded, and a printer is created in the user's Printer folder, enabling the user to send documents to the printer from any application on the desktop.

Before setting up iPrint printers, make sure that you meet all the iPrint Setup requirements. See the Novell iPrint Administration Guide for instructions on installing, configuring, and customizing iPrint.

AXIS Print servers can be installed as iPrint printers, either by using the Novell LPR gateway (LPR on IP) or the AXIS Gateway Configuration Snap-in for iPrint.

Axis provides two free Snap-ins for iPrint:

AXIS LPR Gateway Configuration

AXIS IPP Gateway Configuration
