Canon LPR2 enhances the function of the Canon LPR Port Utility 1.31 to monitor printers and print jobs.
Canon LPR2 has the following features:
■Multiport Support
Canon LPR2 supports the following print protocols:
•LPR
•IPP

■Print Monitor (Viewer)
The Print Monitor allows you to check the status of printers registered with Canon LPR2, and monitor the progress of print jobs.
NOTE
•Canon LPR2 uses the TCP/IP protocol for communications between the computer and printers. Also, Canon LPR2 uses print applications that support LPR/IPP/RAW. Other types of network protocols or print applications are not supported.
•Some devices do not support some types of print applications.
