Client Settings

A CloudPRNT-compatible printer (client) must have the CloudPRNT Server URL setting configured to communicate with the server. There are also other settings, such as the user name and password for HTTP Basic authentication and the polling time.


Client Configurable Items

Server URL (required)

Set a URL to be polled by the client at a certain interval through HTTP POST.
A CloudPRNT Version MQTT-compatible printer executes the Server setting information request (GET) based on this URL to determine the operating protocol.

Polling time (optional)

Set an interval in seconds for the client to execute a server poll (POST request).
The client connects to the server at this time interval to update the current status to the server and check if there is a print job or client action request. If this interval is not set, the client uses the default value.

Note:
If the printer runs on CloudPRNT Version MQTT, this setting is not used.
The server response JSON of the Server setting information request (GET) is used to set an interval for the printer to notify the server of the status.

User Name (optional)

If the user name and password are set on the server, this user name is passed at the first HTTP request.

Password (optional)

If the user name and password are set on the server, this password is passed at the first HTTP request.

  • CloudPRNT-compatible printers support the https/TLS web services, and the default server uses the same CA route set as Mozilla Firefox for verification. Users can install their customized CA certificates on CloudPRNT-compatible printers.
  • There are also security settings available, such as TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3. For details, refer to the following manuals.
    For details on whether the settings are supported by printers, refer to Cipher Suite Support List.
