Bonjour Print Services (Windows) – Installation and Use
=======================================================

Software: Bonjour Print Services for Windows
Copyright: Apple Inc.
Official page: https://support.apple.com/en-us/106380
Installer in this package: BonjourPSSetup.exe (about 5.18 MB)

Purpose on Frariv instruments:
After Bonjour is installed on a Windows PC, you can open the printer’s
web page in a browser with a host name such as
http://frariv-printer-xxxxxx.local
instead of typing the printer’s IP address.
Replace xxxxxx with the number shown on the instrument.

1. Requirements
- Windows (Apple lists Windows XP SP2 or later; Windows 7 / 10 / 11 are recommended)
- The printer and the PC are on the same local network
- The printer publishes a Bonjour / mDNS (.local) host name

2. Install
1) Unzip this package and run BonjourPSSetup.exe.
2) Follow the wizard. The package normally installs to
   C:\Program Files\Bonjour Print Services
   and creates a Desktop shortcut for the Bonjour Printer Wizard.
3) Allow the User Account Control prompt if Windows shows one.
4) Restart only if the installer asks you to.

3. Firewall (from Apple’s notes)
Bonjour uses UDP port 5353. The installer configures the Windows firewall
on supported systems. If you use another personal firewall, open UDP 5353
so .local names can be resolved.

4. Open the printer page in a browser
1) Keep the PC and the printer on the same LAN.
2) Open a browser and enter, for example:
   http://frariv-printer-xxxxxx.local
3) If the page does not open, check that Bonjour is installed, that UDP 5353
   is allowed, and that the PC is not on a guest network or another VLAN.
   You can also try the printer’s IP address to confirm the web UI itself works.

5. Bonjour Printer Wizard
Apple’s package also installs a wizard for adding Bonjour printers as Windows
print queues. This guide focuses on opening
http://frariv-printer-xxxxxx.local in a browser.

6. Uninstall
Remove “Bonjour Print Services” from Windows Settings → Apps, or from
Control Panel → Programs and Features.
