Installing the iPrint In order for users to use iPrint, they need to install the Novell iPrint Client Printer using the software and a printer. When a user selects a printer to be installed by

iPrint Client. iPrint, iPrint checks to see if the Novell iPrint Client software is installed and then installs it if necessary. Then the printer driver is downloaded and the printer is installed in the user's Printer folder.

In order for iPrint to work properly, the workstation should have the following:

Windows 95/98/Me or Windows NT/2000/XP

Web browser with JavaScript enabled:

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or later

Netscape 4.76 (iPrint is not supported on Netscape 6)

The user should use the following iPrint url:

http://<IP address of your NW server>:631/IPP

1.From a Netscape or Internet Explorer browser, enter the provided URL. A Web page displays a listing of available printers to install and a link to install the client software.

2.Select Install iPrint client software to locally install the iPrint printers. If you try to install a printer before installing the iPrint client software, you will be prompted to install the client software first.

If you associate a printer driver with a printer being installed, the driver is automatically installed on the user's workstation. If the driver already exists, that driver is overwritten even if it is a newer driver.

3.After installing a printer, it is added to the user's Printer folder. Users can print to the printer by selecting it from any application.
