Notifications
Automatic notifications of printer unavailability during printing can be sent in the following
ways:
IP Filtering
The purpose of IP filtering is to limit access to the printer to only those Host computers that
have IP addresses within IP ranges predefined on the configuration page. The IP configuration
page, accessible from the EWS (when logged in as administrator), has enable and disable
parameters. When IP filtering is disabled, all network traffic is allowed.
When IP filtering is enabled and incoming data is from an address that falls within the
predefined range, it is allowed to print, if the “Printing” or “Config” checkboxes are checked. If
the incoming data does not fall into a predefined range, it is rejected.
In cases where IP ranges overlap but have different permissions (for example, one to print only
and another to print and configure), permissions for the overlapping addresses are determined
by IP Filter priority. Higher priority overrides lower priority permissions. If an administrator IP
address is entered, it takes highest priority over any configured IP range.
NOTE: Leaving IP ranges disables IP Filtering. The address 0.0.0.0 is not allowed.
