PISCATAWAY, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The Printer Working Group (PWG) has added significant new capabilities to its widely adopted IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) industry standard embedded into almost all printers today. The PWG’s IPP Everywhere™ allows computers and mobile devices to find printers and print without the use of vendor-specific software, or drivers, saving manufacturers, device makers and users time and money.
Updates to the IPP standard include:
PWG members include Apple Inc.; Brother Industries, Ltd.; Canon; Epson; Fuji Xerox; Google; High North, Inc.; HP; Intel; Konica Minolta; Kyocera; Lexmark; Meteor Network; Microsoft; Oki Printing Solutions; MPI Tech; Papercut Software; Qualcomm; Oki Data, Ricoh; Synaptics; Toshiba America Business Solutions; Tykodi Consulting Services LLC; Xerox and YSoft.
The PWG’s IPP Workgroup is working to add IPP systems services for IPP management, define IPP job and document encryption to provide IPP with end-to-end encryption, and revamp its enterprise printing extensions and production printing extensions to better support complex enterprise and press workflows. These updates are planned for release in 2020.
Today, more than 400 printers meet PWG’s IPP Everywhere™ certification standards, meaning that users can rely on them to locate and print to any printer anywhere without updating or downloading software. The IPP Everywhere™ free self-certification program is available on the PWG IPP Everywhere™ page.
