You will need to perform Window’s standard Add New Printer
procedure. To do this, select the “Network Printer” setting as
shown in the screen below and click “Next.”
Select “Connect to a printer on the Internet or on a home or
office network” and enter the URL of your HPS1P print server.
The URL format will be “http://IP:631/LPT_PORT”. The IP portion
of the URL will be the print server’s IP address. LPT_PORT is
the port name of your print server that your printer is
connected to. For one port print servers, the port name will be
“lpt1”. For Hawking’s three-port print server, the port names
are – lpt1, lpt2 or lpt3 depending on which printer port your
printers are connected to. (Please write down the printer port
and corresponding printer model for configuring our line of
multiple port print servers.) The last number you will need to
write down after the port name and colon will be 631. 631 is
the IPP standard port number for IPP printing requests. An
example IP address will be modeled as follows: The URL will
be http://192.168.12.13:631/lpt1 for a print server located on the first
printer port (lpt1) of the IP address 192.168.12.13. (lpt2 and
lpt3 for printers located on the 2
nd
and 3
rd
ports respectively.)
After entering the URL of print server, click “Next” and
