IPP Printing

jswinberlinMaven VIP

A customer wants to print from a remote office about 10 miles from their main office. They think this should be simple. Like, "I have internet and I have the printer installed, why can't I print". I'm trying to explain to them that they need to have connectivity from point a to point b such as a VPN. We may also discuss Google Cloud Print but from what I've seen it isn't always reliable. Then, I got thinking about IPP printing and while I understand the concept I don't know how to set it up. Does anyone have experience or information on how to configure this?

Thanks for any help!

Art, it looks like this is a device to compensate for only having 1 Ethernet port on the device. This looks like it would be used to essentially turn the USB port on the device to an alternate Ethernet port that can be configured for another LAN. I believe the MFP (Savin C9020) should have the hardware necessary for what I want to do. I just need to understand how to configure IPP printing, how to make it available to the outside world and what the security risks are. Does that make sense?

IPP printing can be used but it requires a windows server and also a port be open on the firewall to allow IPP printing . It also is handy if there internet ip address is static. It is usually easier to set up a VPN rather than IPP.
