The Internet Printing Page

Click the Internet Printing tab to view or change the Internet Printing values of the Wireless PrintServer.

Internet Printing allows you to automatically print any e-mails that are sent to a specific e- mail account on your network. This is espe- cially useful for print- ing information when you are not connected to the network. You can print from anywhere that you can access e- mail.

The Mail Server IP Address is where you will enter the address of your mail server. (This value must be a fixed IP address.) The Account Name and Account Password must be entered next. Enter the password again to Verify Password. Then, enter the time interval for the Wireless PrintServer to check for e-mail to be printed, in hours and minutes in the Check Mail every: box. You may even specify an e-mail address where mails that cannot be printed are routed, which is useful for both graphic-intensive e-mails and for troubleshoot- ing purposes. Enter this e-mail address in the Redirect unprintable Mail to: box.

Under the Printer settings, enter the Printer Model in the box provided. You can find this in the Device Manager. Then choose the Printer Port from the drop down box.

Then, choose from the Options by placing a check mark next to your prefer- ences. You can Print every E-Mail, choose to Print Banner Pages (default), or Mail response when printed.

If you make any mistakes prior to saving, you can simply hit the Cancel but- ton, which will exit the screen without making any changes. Once you are cer- tain of any changes you have made, click the Save button to implement the changes.

Note: Linksys does not provide any technical support for problems with IPP.
