I'm using the ipp npm module to send a print job from a google cloud function. I believe I have set up the printer correctly but I don't know how I'm supposed to know the exact uri for sending the print job. The printer model is Brother MFC-L3770CDW Here is how my settings look in the web view for the printer configuration.
And here is the function code.:
var ipp = require('ipp');
var PDFDocument = require('pdfkit');
var doc = new PDFDocument;
doc.text("Hello World");
var buffers = [];
doc.on('data', buffers.push.bind(buffers));
doc.on('end', function () {
var printer = ipp.Printer("https://10.0.0.55:443");
var file = {
"operation-attributes-tag":{
"requesting-user-name": "User",
"job-name": "Print Job",
"document-format": "application/pdf"
},
data: Buffer.concat(buffers)
};
printer.execute("Print-Job", file, function (err, res) {
if(err) {
console.log(err);
}
else{
console.log("Printed: "+res.statusCode);
}
});
console.log('executing');
});
doc.end();
console.log('finished executing');
I have tried various uris such as https://10.0.0.55:631 https://10.0.0.55:443 https://10.0.0.55:631/ipp https://10.0.0.55:631/ipp/printer
Sometimes I get an error like:
