Print Documents Securely Using SSL/TLS

To print documents securely with IPP protocol, use the IPPS protocol.
  1. Start your web browser.
  2. Type "https://machine's IP address" in your browser's address bar (where "machine's IP address" is the machine's IP address).
    For example:

    https://192.168.1.2

    • If you are using a Domain Name System or enable a NetBIOS name, you can type another name, such as "SharedPrinter" instead of the IP address.

      • For example:

        https://SharedPrinter

      If you enable a NetBIOS name, you can also use the node name.

      • For example:

        https://brnxxxxxxxxxxxx

      The NetBIOS name can be found in the Network Configuration Report.

    • For Mac, access Web Based Management by clicking the machine's icon on the Status Monitor screen.
  3. If the machine prompts you for a password, type it, and then click .
  4. Click the Network tab.
  5. Click Protocol. Make sure the IPP check box is selected.

    If the IPP check box is not selected, select the IPP check box, and then click Submit.

    Restart your machine to activate the configuration.

    After the machine restarts, return to the machine's web page, click the Network tab, and then click Protocol.

  6. Click HTTP Server Settings.
  7. Select the HTTPS(Port 443) check box in the IPP, and then click Submit.
  8. Restart your machine to activate the configuration.
Communication using IPPS cannot prevent unauthorised access to the print server.
