IF THE PRINTER DRIVER HAS NOT BEEN INSTALLED One of the benefits of the IPP printing protocol is that it establishes the model name of the printer when you communicate with it. After successful communication you will see the model name of the printer automatically. This means that you do not need to inform Windows® 2000 the type of printer driver to be used. 6 Click OK.
