It is also possible for InterFormNG to print via the internet to a remote printer.

 

Requirements

•There are special requirements (support for unlimited printers) for the InterFormNG license key in order to print via IPP. However if you define the printer connected via IPP like below (instead of setting the meta data keys in the workflow or in the template), then the printer is counted like a normal printer, and an unlimited printer license is not required.

•InterFormNG must be able to reach the internet.

•The remote printer must support IPP - Internet Printing Protocol, and should also be able to reach the internet.
