IPP path for printers by manufacture: Google Native Printing
Since Google Cloud Printing has been discontinued, Google has been pushing towards native printing for Chromebook users in Google Workspace.
Native printing make use of IPP(Internet Printing Protocol) for sending the print request to the printers. IPP has been around for several years and is available on most network printers. The challenging part is finding the IPP port or the path as it varies from manufacture to manufacture. The best option is to check the printer manual to find the path.
We have analyzed IPP printing from several manufactures and created below list of IPP path used by different manufactures for their printers.
