To access a network printer via IPP you need only its URI but this is an arbitrary string which you must read from the printer's manual.
Goodness; how can reading the manual to copy cryptic and unpleasant strings from A to B be necessary in today's world ? surely you're joking ? there is a protocol: 'ipp' does it really have no auto-discovery / plug-and-play functionality whatsoever ? are there really no standards for these settings ? The printer prints out a two-page set of settings when you power it on, that doesn't include this string. https://www.google.com/search?q=Xerox+Phaser+6280N+IPP+URL&ie=utf-8&... shows ~nothing. The installation guide does not include this information. The "Quick Use Guide" does not include this information all 5 copies of it. The "Warranty" document does not include this information. Let me burn some time reading the CD. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
